I think I am using 'Evince' though it is actually called 'Document 
Viewer' in Gnome 3 which is what I have GuixSD configured to run.  I my 
case, there is no problem viewing the document from the screen, the 
fonts appear ok there on every document I have opened.  It is only when 
I try to print out something on paper that text does not appear in the 
hard copy.  Also for comparison with your problem, I see the "document 
properties" -> "Fonts" window says 'all fonts are either standard or 
embedded' then it presents a very long list of fonts in the document.  
It does not say anything about substitution unless I am misreading it.  
Maybe your problem is somewhat different, though they both relate to the 
fonts in some way.
