The PDFs look OK here with both Preview and Skim. I would try to
delete the font cache on your computer and restart it.
That seems to have solved it. I see letters again! My quality of
life just went up measurably. Thank you very much!
For the record, I used the simple method Wolfgang pointed to:
restarting in "Safe Mode" then restarting again in normal mode.
It's extremely easy with no software or mucking around in unusual
directories.
Specifically, I followed these instructions:

I seem to have spoken too soon. The very next document I prepared had
the same boxes-rather-than-letters problem.
That said, I cleared the font caches again and, after restarting, the
document looked correct. Perhaps this is a coincidence. Or perhaps
there is something amiss with the way my computers are caching fonts.
Sigh.
