The problem is that DefaultFontMapper maps the fonts with the winansi
encoding by default. You'll have to change the encoding to an encoding with
the russian characters or better yet, use the encoding Identity-H to support
all the encodings in that particular font. Assuming that you want to change
the encoding to Arial:
mapper.insertDirectory("c:\\windows\\fonts");
DefaultFontMapper.BaseFontParameters pp =
mapper.getBaseFontParameters("Arial");
if (pp != null)
pp.encoding = BaseFont.IDENTITY_H;
