TrueType fonts work fine for me. However, José seems to be having problems
with Arial and Lucida Sans.

Thanks for pointing out that bug report. It might explain some of the
problems I've seen with PDFs in an unrelated issue at work, and hopefully
your workaround for the problem will help with that.

Perhaps José's problem is partly a result of Postscript to PDF conversion.
José, do you see the same problems when you produce Postscript files using
Arial and Lucida Sans?
