My G5 Tenfourfox 38.2.1 like 38.2 has problems with page and font rendering PDF web pages in comparison with Safari Leopard Webkit.

See attachments and example of this: http://www.etoncorp.com/sites/default/files/BoostBloc4000_SpecSheet_110612.pdf.

    Firefox 38 ESR on Windows has the same bug.

    Generally: Pdf.js is not 100% pixel perfect to what Adobe Reader or Apple Preview show (Safari uses Preview). However, font rendering should work, but it's Mozilla's bug.

    Yes, this is a Mozilla bug, and may represent whatever fonts you have installed on the system. You should consider PDF.js to be more of a preview tool than a fully fledged PDF reader.

    I'll close this since this is not something we would add to the worklist. You can file on Bugzilla if you like.
