[Scribus] font artifacts on Scribus PDFs

Hi,

We created two brochures:

http://angulosolido.pt/brochuras/ag.pdf

with Scribus which printed quite nicely.

However there are visual artifacts when viewing them on Adobe Reader affecting 
the character "l".

Here is a screenshot of the problem:

The problem doesn't show up on the print preview inside Scribus nor on real 
printing.

The original file is here:

Notes:

- Scribus allways outlines the font in question (Futura Lt Light) - it can't 
be embbeded
- Zooming to 2400% on Adobe Reader we see that the "l"s seem to be outlined 
differently from other characters - it doesn't change with changing the 
"smooth line art" on Adobe Reader.

What could be the problem here?

Thanks!
Gustavo
