Does repligo display original fonts when it renders the PDF?
Currently, no -- RepliGo Reader uses substitute fonts. I have attached screenshots to illustrate a sample of the difference of the way in which the two applications display fonts. Yes, this appears to be a benefit of BeamReader, but, IMO, it is not worth the current bloat of the application -- for my usage, the other features of RepliGo Reader (especially Find [text search], Bookmarks, and Read view) far outweigh BeamReader's display of "original fonts". We'll just have to wait to see what Team Cerience has up their sleeves for the future.
