This is an ODT file

The fonts displayed in the PDF, ODT, and SVG *all* appear different to me (most noticeably in the "y" of "Key Partners").

SVG fonts (like the one embedded in the SVG file) are obsolete and were dropped from SVG 2.0 draft. Firefox and Internet Explorer never supported them and Chrome dropped support for them few years ago. I’d close this WONTFIX.

Thanks for your insight, Khaled. It indeed seems like the best course of action, so closing.
