xpdf vs. gv or kghostview

[Nirmal Govind <nirmalg@psu.edu>]

Hi.. not sure if this is the correct list for this but - why is it that 
some pdf documents when viewed in xpdf look great but look crappy when 
viewed in gv or kghostview? By crappy I mean that the fonts look ugly 
(not as ugly as what one gets in Acrobat with the standard Latex CMR 
fonts) but it seems like some option is missing.. I do have antialias on 
in gv but that doesn't seem to be helping.. I like xpdf but there's no 
option to print in it so I need to use either gv or kghostview to do 
that.. so I was hoping to do the reading part also in one of latter 
softwares..

Thanks,
nirmal
