What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Grab http://www.jbw.pl/file/ebd/test_pl.pdf
2. Open it with vudroid
3. Open it with ebookdroid
4. Compare results

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It should look like http://www.jbw.pl/file/ebd/vudroid-test-pl.png
Instead, it looks like http://www.jbw.pl/file/ebd/ebookdroid-test-pl.png (wrong)

What version of the product are you using?
ebookdroid-1.2.2-rc7

On what operating system?
Android 3.1

What device are you using?
Motorola XOOM

Please provide any additional information below.
I wish to use only core fonts and don't want to embed additional data. There 
are 18 non-ascii character used in Polish language, thus reader without good 
support of "Differences" is unusable from my point of view.

I got same result in all my PDF viewers. I mean wrong result. Looks like some 
fonts are missed in my PC and our MuPDF library build.

People forget about simple solutions. The rule says that I don't need to embed 
core font in my PDF file and I very much tied to this idea. I'm sure it is 
nonsense to embed fonts in every PDF, while core fonts are available in system 
or in reader. Especially in portable devices, where we must work with strong 
memory limits.

I don't know what did you mean by "all my PDF viewers".  As I said before, 
VuDroid renders my example perfectly as well on my XOOM as on SGS2 with 
Gingerbread 2.3.5. As EBookDroid claims it is successor of VuDroid, I expected 
similar results or even better, not worse. It is not so vital for me, because 
VuDroid v1.4 is sufficient for all my needs. My XOOM is equipped out of the box 
with simple version of Quickoffice, which renders well Polish characters. 
Recently, i've bought PrinterShare which views and prints all my PDFs 
perfectly. There is another printing app, PrintBot, which does it well, but it 
is assisted with remote server, so perhaps it shouldn't be compared.

I believe I have no special "Polish wersion" of Android. I'm sure it is true 
multi-language system and as I can see chinese and cyrillic characters, then 
others could see polish as well.

I'm aware that Android version of Adobe Reader renders my files wrong, but 
surprisingly the same Adobe Reader on my PC renders them right. Unfortunately, 
I don't know where to find Adobe's "bugtracker".

The reason of my effort here is that I published new Android application named 
"Firemka LITE". It mainly creates invoices as PDF files. It has no builtin 
viewer, so now I'm assembling my recommendation list and it is up to you if you 
wish to be on it or not.

I'm sorry if my speak is weak ;-) but I'm not native English speaker.

I want to say that in our build of MuPDF library are missed some fonts needed 
for properly display this document. We will try to find this font, and fix 
issue.
