Fixed in CVS. Thanks for the report.

The pdf file http://www.gca.org/papers/xmleurope2001/papers/pdf/sid-03-5.pdf
contains three truetype fonts, the first one had been extracted and is attached.
When viewing the pdf with xpdf (with freetype2), some glyphs are not rendered at all.
Dubugging xpdf shows that the FT_Load_Glyph call fails exactly for the offending glyphs.
Since ftview doesn't display those glyphs either, the problem
seems to be related to the freetype library and not to xpdf.
On the other hand ghostscript renders the pdf correctly, so the fonts must include those glyphs.
Maybe the fonts are not strictly ok but ghostscript is more liberal
than the freetype library?
