Print a pdf from kde using adobe source code pro fonts

Ciao,
how are you? When I try to print a PDF file from KDE (Okular), almost all characters that use "adobe source code pro" fonts are rendered by a cross ("x") inside a box, instead of normal alphanumeric characters. But if I do the same by other applications, like Xournal++, all is perfect. Why? Do you have any ideas? Thanks a lot to everyone

Sounds like some you may be missing a font okular needs.
Possibly those other applications fallback to some other font.

post pacman -Qs adobe please.

Do you have a pdf dokument with this issue you can make publicly avaiable so others can test / check it ?

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky
