Some Pages appear to have a different Formatting in Win/Mac

Post by puqq »

I have written a report using the newest MacTeX distribution. Perhaps the only external style package was fancyhdr.

The document looks fine on Skim / Adobe Reader / Preview on my Mac, but on Adobe Reader on Win 7 some pages have bold typeface. See below for comparison

I used the very same template before, and nobody has ever reported similar behaviour (the report was shared with at least 10 group members / reviewers)

Has anybody any clue what is happening?

I think that's a Windows/Adobe "bug". If you print out the page (from either a mac or a windows computer) the text will be normal.
