I have not looked at the output PDF data but am using Acrobat 7.0.7 to
display.
Moving the cb.setFontAndSize() inbetween BT/ET makes no difference in my
testing to the output (despite my previous claim it did). The only
thing that reliably corrects the problem is to use the extra
cb.setFontAndSize().
Another thing I noted in chopping down the code is it only affect
ALIGN_RIGHT. Which makes me think it is an acrobat rendering bug.
I have a working compilable example and example output files I have
prepared into a ZIP file. I will shortly email to everyone who posted a
reply/followup to the thread, if you didn't want it feel free to just
delete it from your inbox. If I have missed you out and you would like
a copy email me privately.
Regards,
Darryl

That code looks kosher to me. It may be that you're running into a bug in
Acrobat's imaging model. If I'm following things correctly, your output will
look something like:
---
/foo 8 Tf %%cb.setFontAndSize()
q %%cb.saveState()
<stuff>
Q %%cb.restoreState();
BT %%cb.beginText();
<more stuff>
ET %%cb.endText();
---
That "Tf" (set the font and size) operator is really only valid inside a
beginText/endText block. Given your later comments, it sounds like this will work and be
valid:
public void outerMethod(PdfContentByte cb, BaseFont font) {
cb.beginText();
cb.setFontAndSize(font.getBaseFont(), 8);
cb.endText();
//the rest is left alone
...
}
