I used File -> Save as Image to export the failed render. You can view it at [1], and the original PDF is at [2]. So, if it is working for you and not for me, I figure that the problem has something to do with my operating environment. This is Gentoo Linux x86_64 with KDE. I tried it on Windows Server 2008 64-bit, and it worked fine there. I then tried it on Ubuntu with GNOME and got the same result as Gentoo/KDE. Any ideas what could cause the same pdfbox JAR to render text on some systems but not others? Is it having trouble acquiring fonts, perhaps?
