When viewing pdf files in Google Chrome on OSX Lion, certain PDFs do not render properly. Namely, when there are ligatures (an fi combination or a ff combination) the two letters are replaced with a small white box, as if the font could not be found. When I download the same PDF and view it in Preview, it renders just fine.

Is there a way to fix this rendering issue? Do I have to install some font or something?
