Look closer:
you can select Med ID in one PDF but not in the other.
Seems like the glyphs were added using a font in one PDF,
but as shapes in the other.

This would explain the difference in size,
and the bad rendering when printed on a low-resolution device.

If I'm right, this is not a problem caused by iText;
this is a problem caused by bad use of iText.

Back to the OP: why are you adding those glyphs as shapes?
As far as I know, that's something you have to do deliberately;
iText never chooses to add glyphs as shapes on its own.
