Well, I'm more willing to forgive that case since PDF is a (reasonably) standard and unencumbered format. In that particular case the bug is mainly with the open-source Xpdf and Evince PDF readers, which don't render the PDF correctly.

But it certainly is embarrassing to have that open-source software ad only viewable with closed-source software!
