PDF text is unreadable on screen and in print-out

One of my co-workers brought to me several PDF saves of the homepage of the Chicago Tribune and an article from the Wall Street Journal. The format of the document looks normal, but a portion of the text form the Tribune page and nearly the entire page from the WSJ is unreadable. My guess is that it is just a font issue within Acrobat, however, I tried checking and unchecking the box within preferences that says to "Use local fonts only" to no avail.

 

Within the "Fonts Used in this Document" window there are 6 fonts listed (four for WSJ article). Five of them are true-type and have four different lines of information under each of them. The sixth font has an 'a' symbol next to and is called Courier (Embedded Subset) and underneath has the following two lines of information--Type: Type 1; Encoding: Custom. A guess I have is that this font is the problem. My question is how do I get Acrobat to ignore that font and go to something local that I have installed on my computer?
