The font has this structure:

  ...
  /CharStrings 118 dict def
  Private begin
  CharStrings begin
    /.notdef 5 RD ...

This is non-standard, and probably only a real PS interpreter accepts
it (if at all).  Additionally, it seems that the encrypted part is
wrong somewhere in the middle of glyph /char_214.

I've (hopefully) fixed the problem with the non-stardard use of
/CharStrings, but of course your test font fails due to the buggy
/char_214.  Please test.
