I want to trace the PDF font names back to their original font names (Windows' fonts in my case), Is there a reliable way to do this?
Reliable, not really.
There are a lot of things you can do to guess intelligently, but it's always going to be just that...
Does PDF font names have any significant meaning in a PDF document?
Yes and no. They are used by Acrobat (and other viewers) under certain specific circumstances where it is necessary to determine relationships between PDF fonts, OS fonts, and the like.
