Thanks for the tip. > Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion > Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion > Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion > Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion I could've sworn I've also frequently seen that warning. But I don't see them now. Do they depend on the pdf you try to open? > Some pdf documents have on side panel index, does anybody knows what options control the fonts in that index. > On my display they are very small (hard to read) and choppy fonts. > It should be the same font as other user interface elements, and controlled via the "-font" option. Hum.... actually that shows where the "Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion" warning for me! By changing to a different fonts for the interface I can sometimes reproduce the warning. So maybe setting the font will help. You can also make that setting systemwide by putting an appropriate incantation in xpdfrc, according to 'man xpdf'.
