Maybe the ttf and the type1 versions of the font have different encodings?
Re "set the pdfbox fallback" no; what I did to test ideas, was to mess
with the substitutes map in ExternalFonts.java

I want it to use embedded fonts, but it appears to be looking for installed
fonts for the check mark on an iText editable check box field, so I tried
installing ZapfDingbats.ttf.
Now it just gets this log
org.apache.pdfbox.rendering.font.Type1Glyph2D getPathForCharacterCode
WARNING: No glyph for 52 (.notdef) in font ZapfDingbats
Now it doesn't log "Using fallback font" so I don't know what it's doing.
I can only guess iText is also using a fallback font which is apparently
not available to pdfbox?
Is there a way I can set the pdfbox fallback font for the
renderPageToGraphics?

It doesn't work with the ttf font for some reason. I can only tell that it
works for me with the type1 file.

I don't know where the fallback font comes from but it doesn't work. If I
view the PDF in Abode Reader it has an editable checkbox with a check mark
in it. The image rendered by pdfbox is just an empty box.
I am using pdfbox 2.0.0 from a trunk.
I can upload a small sample PDF that shows this error if it helps.
I have a ZapfDingbats.ttf file but I can't see any way to embed that for
the editable checkbox. I'm creating the PDF using iText.
If I view the PDF in Adobe Reader and check Properties, on the Fonts tab
it
shows
ZapfDingbats
Type: Type 1
Encoding: Built-in
Actual Font: AdobePiStd
Actual Font Type: Type 1
My normal fonts for text that properly embedded which render fine with
this
trunk show as
LucidaSans-Typewriter (Embedded Subset)
Type: TrueType
Encoding: Custom

Is there a fix for these?

Yes, buy a ZapfDingbats type 1 font and copy it into your font
directory.
Or maybe you already have it, then the file is named "ZD______.PFB".
