Hello everyone,
after a few updates ago, suddenly the fonts of PDF attachments (only attachments) have almost unreadable characters.

Oper V. 95.0.4635.37

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/109.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 OPR/95.0.0.0 (it-IT), ANGLE (NVIDIA, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB Direct3D11 vs_5_0 ps_5_0, D3D11)

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

@marcobank Check opera://flags/#use-angle

@marcobank Sorry. 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.

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!

Does https://www.orimi.com/pdf-test.pdf look funny to you also?

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

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.

I uninstalled opera and installed an older version (Opera_92.0.4561.43_Setup) the problem seems solved. I try to update to the latest version and see what happens?

I found the solution, the problem was the "lucid mode"

@marcobank
still not as clear as previous versions but better than before.

@marcobank Strange. 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.

@burnout426 I agree, strange. Perhaps somebody can give some other info
