Comment 2 Albert Astals Cid 2009-09-20 14:56:24 UTC 
The problem seems to be that the embedded font Type 1 is not understood by gs while freetype does understand it

Embed Type1 fonts to PostScript files correctly

The problem here is similar to the one from #69717. The embedded Type1 font is in PFB format and includes PFB headers which are not removed before embedding the font again to the resulting PostScript file.
Attached patch recognises that the font contains PFB headers and doesn't include them in the conversion.
