I would have some indignation at least if I found a printed book with poor kerning, missing ligatures (like "fi" being a ligature but not "fj"), or different font for some characters (why does "à" look thicker than "a"?). I'd mostly think the publisher is rather crappy and wish it was an e-book so I can fix it.

What would cause me more indignation is finding these problems in an e-book with an embedded font. They should have left the embedded font out and let me chose the right one.
