I will add to Mark's (excellent) stream of consciousness analysis:

The next step is to see what the name of the font resource is that is
causing the problem.  Then, load RUPS and dig into the page dictionary and
find the entry for that font resource - given what Mark is showing in the
source, most likely the font resource isn't defined.

There's always a question with this sort of thing about 'why does Acrobat
show the file OK' - the answer is that Acrobat is very permissive - there
are all sorts of problems like this that it may silently ignore.  Older
versions of Acrobat often show problems that newer versions ignore.

And then, of course, there's always the possibility that there's a problem
with iText, and the strategy for looking up font resources isn't quite in
sync with the PDF spec.  I don't *think* that is the case here, but it's
always possible.

If you do wind up providing the PDF so we can take a look, be sure to also
provide font file that think may be involved.
