Well it looks like this issue wasn't followed up on. And on re-reading the thread, it seems like the op went to make a bug report before the problem was investigated completely. And plus, they never posted a link to the bug report, so we can't check for fixes or workarounds.
I'm going to split your message out into a fresh new topic, and we'll start from scratch. Look for the title "Font problem in PDF".
Would you please describe your problem in your own words? Also, please provide the PDF and the SVG file.
Thanks
