This page has issues with fonts and spacing in Firefox on Mac: http://www.ets.org/Media/Tests/GRE/pdf/gre%20practice%20general%20test.pdf

Specifically, the text "General Test" is bold in preview and the text "Practice Book" has a serif font in preview. Both are sans serif, unbolded in pdf.js.

I see this in Firefox 7.0.1, Firefox 8.0 and Aurora 9.0a2. I confirmed that it shows in Chrome as well. All are on Mac OS X. Here is a screenshot of what I am seeing: http://thinhorn.com/pdf/gre_pract_pdf_fonts_issue.png)

I notice the fonts are failing the sanitizer.
