I observed the same issue.
For me it depend of shapes types.
Il looks like "Desktop - Native UI Widgets" are not exported to pdf, but other 
widget type like "Desktop - Sketchy GUI" or "common shapes" are correctly 
exported to pdf.
Version : 2.0.4 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation release 6.4 (Santiago).

Problem can be solved by exporting to pronter and using some PDF-printer (like 
PDF-creator, for example)

Same issue here, tried multiple fonts. It is probably related to the PDF fonts 
since this is able to be recreated by print to PDF for Acrobat.

To fix the print Acrobat with corrupted fonts, you need to uncheck the box in 
the print dialog for 'Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts'.

I would wonder if this is only on Windows 7 and does anyone else have Acrobat 
Pro installed? Could be related. Is Pencil using system fonts and not embedding 
the font in the PDF? Sounds likely.

Fix works to print to PDF manually without using the export tool. Objects are 
vector and font is a real font that is editable in the PDF direction with 
Acrobat Pro.

Bug might not get fixed if this functionality works.

Suggest removing the export to PDF functionality for now.

Is there a way to preserve links using this workaround (especially for someone 
without Acrobat Pro)?

Have the same issue on Win7, v.2.0.5. Is this going to be resolved, maybe in a 
bugfix release?

I just would like to add that I too had this very same issue. 

I would export to PDF and the text was blank. I am using Windows 8, the latest 
version of pencil to date, and do have the Adobe suite installed. I used two 
fonts throughout the project - (1) Arial & (2) FontAwesome (open type version).

Using the print command resolved the issue. Export does not work.

Just one more note. Printing to a PDF almost worked. Although text was visible 
- I had a "table/tree" on one of my mockups. This tree did not print. The tree 
was blank - border, table, headers, and data - all blank. This appears to be 
the only issue with the print dialog atm.

Just like to say I have the same problem with Windows 8. Exporting to PDF has 
no text.
