[cairo] Problem creating PDFs without fontconfig

[Kaiser Bernhard]

I'm using cairo 1.4.10 and I have patched cairo using freetype without fontconfig (patch by David Turner) because my software is based on a proprietary operating system.

When I use the PDF backend to create PDF files I have a problem:
I can only create "graphical" PDF files, this means I write glyphs into another cairo surface  and then paint the content of that surface into the PDF surface using cairo_set_source_surface() and cairo_paint().
I also can write glyphs directly into the PDF surface and the PDF file is created by cairo without any error. But if I try to open the PDF file the Acrobat Reader shows an error about the included font and the PDF file is not shown by Acrobat Reader.

If you need an PDF file example, I can send you one per Email.

Does anyone have an idea how to solve this problem?

Thanks
Bernhard
