Not an iText problem. First of all XPWRTT+ArialMT is a subset TrueType font 
not a T3 font. There are no issues with font subsetting. If you can produce 
a small standalone code that produces the problem, I'll have a look.

Subject: [iText-questions] Connot extract the embedded font


When I open the PDF file created with iText2.1.3 in Acrobat 8.1, I got an 
error message "Connot extract the embedded font XPWRTT+ArialMT. Some 
characters may not display correctly". The same file can be opened without 
such error in Acrobat 7.0. I googled this error and found the following 
explanation. Does iText cause this problem? if yes, if there any update or 
plan to update? Thanks

#1572280 Type 3 fonts with missing operators.
PDF documents that contain Type 3 fonts with missing operators are 
non-compliant with the PDF specification.
These non-compliant PDF documents are typically generated by third party 
products.
When trying to opening the document, users see an error message, "Cannot 
extract the embedded font 'F0'.
Some characters may not be displayed or printed correctly." PDF documents 
open correctly in Reader/Acrobat 7.x, but not 8.0 or 8.1.
The root cause is Type 3 fonts that do not comply with the PDF 
specification, which requires either the 'd0' or 'd1' operator in every Type 
3 character procedure.
In version 7.x, if the offending character was not displayed, the PDF 
document opened normally. Version 8.0 catches this error even if the 
character is not displayed.
The updated behavior will ignore the missing operator when the character 
procedure is empty.
Root: fixes an issue in versions 8.0 and 8.1, not present in earlier 
versions.
