Something very regularly hoses font kerning in OOo->PDF conversions
that I have tried, causing two or three glyphs in one word to be
jammed next to each other in an almost-but-only-sometimes-entirely
unreadable way.  This may actually be the font's fault, or FreeType's
fault -- but I only notice it in OOo, so in my mind it is OOo's fault.
