test.pdf: fonts NOT embedded;  test-p.pdf: fonts embedded by PitStop Server
(evince fails);  test-g.pdf: fonts embedded by ghostscript (evince ok)

Hi,
  I cannot see some text in pdf files were fonts were embedded after the pdf
creation.


How to replicate:

echo "50 600 moveto /Courier findfont 30 scalefont setfont (the quick brown
fox) show" | ps2pdf - test.pdf


embed fonts using Enfocus PitStop Server 9


open with xpdf ----> ok
open with evince --> fail
  Error: could not create type1 face
  some font thing failed

open with okular --> fail
  Error: Couldn't create a font for 'Courier'



I am attaching an archive containing: 

test.pdf: fonts NOT embedded

test-p.pdf: fonts embedded by PitStop Server (evince cannot see text)

test-g.pdf: fonts embedded by ghostscript (evince sees the text)
