Add the name-mapping (name within pdf -> internal name) to [1] and the 
font-mapping (internal name -> font file) to [2].
But be aware, this works only for fonts which aren't embedded and can't be found
automatically by pdfbox and it should work as a substitute for not working 
subsets
of true type fonts, see [3] for further details.
It won't work, if the rendering is scrambled because of an encoding issue.
