<![CDATA[Bad view of PDF attachment fonts]]>Hello everyone,
after a few updates ago, suddenly the fonts of PDF attachments (only attachments) have almost unreadable characters.

Perhaps somebody can give some other info 🙂

I can't get lucid mode to affect PDFs, not even for PDFs with embedded images, and not even with PDFs with embedded images where the PDF is embedded in a regular HTML page with <embed>.

Glad you found the cause though.

I try to update to the latest version and see what happens?

I see your test file very well, I also opened it in edge and they are practically the same, indeed you dare to say that it is clearer in opera,
thank'you

Now I try with the suggested installation.

Do your PDFs look funny in a test standalone installation also?

Thanks for the replies. I'm happy with the instructions, I like to try and learn. Changing the settings, nothing changes.
I noticed that even when entering the sites, the attached tables or images do not look right, see the example of the Microsoft!

I saw you mentioned the Angle settings (from the GL_Renderer value on at the opera://gpu URL I guess) in your original post, so I assumed you were aware of how to change the Angle flag. My bad.

Angle flag set to opengl

thanks for the answer, but I'm completely uneducated on the subject, but if you give me some indications or links where to find how to change these sets, I can gladly try. Thank you
