That’s probably due to a known issue in pdf engines improperly handling fonts. Even Adobe’s own InDesign 4’s built-in pdf engine was plagued with that bug. [1] In the sample pdf, only the regular font gets messed up by affected pdf renderers (pdf.js in FF, …). That font is TeXGyreTermes-Regular, and it’s the only CID (composite) font. In the source, that font was an OpenType font (.otf), which, during pdf-creation, got converted into a CID double-byte font, resulting in messed-up Identity-H encoding. (CID double-byte fonts are really meant for huge Asian charset fonts, only.) Likely, the pdf engine used, wrongly assumes that all Unicode encoded fonts (.otf) contain huge Asian charsets, and thus converts them into CID. I guess most newer pdf renderers know to handle the issue, while the renderer used in FF e.a. doesn’t. The quick fix, at pdf creation, is to avoid fonts being converted into CID at all.
