Ups, I missed that. You obviously added the attachment to the mail you'd
send to my private mail account. Now, I've got it.

That doesn't work on the mailinglist, attachments aren't allowed.

Now that I have a look at the pdf, I probably know where your issue came
from. Both fonts (Arial and Arial MT) aren't included in the pdf, so
that pdfbox tries to find it somewhere in your system. I guess that it
doesn't find anything suitable for Arial MT, so that Arial is used
instead. That should explain the missing bold property. I saw that your
pdf was somehow created with some oracle tool. Is it possible to
configure that tool to include the fonst to the pdf?
