      PDF exports performed in Acrobat X Standard create PDF's that the viewpdf macro incorrectly renders in italics.

            We also faced the same case where bold text in PDF is displayed both as bold and in italics. Not only Arial but Helvetica and Calibri are also affected.

            We just noticed this behavior in the PDF macro as Vincent described:

            Arial content embeded in a pdf file and displayed on a Confluence page via the pdf macro shows italicized whereas it's not italic in the pdf file itself

            Older PDFs are however not affected, even when I reattach them.

            • Confluence server 6.14.3
            • Client OS: Windows 10
            • Server OS: CentOS7
            • Tested on Chrome

            Italic in general causes spacing issues on PDF export. It's collapsing the space between the last italic character and any inline text in normal paragraph format.
