Hmm, this font doesn't have a `cmap' table, which is invalid according
to the OpenType standard, and the behaviour is defined as
`implementation specific' in PDF standard (see section 5.5. in the PDF
1.6 specification).

Please see

for the reason to the change behaviour.

David, do you have a better fix?
