  What you expected to happen:

  When I ran: gs -o output.jpg -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=jpeg input.pdf

  I expect to have output.jpg, which look like this:
  http://62.210.181.5/has_all_chars.jpg

  
  What happened instead:

  Instead I get output.jpg which looks like this:
  http://62.210.181.5/missing_special_chars.jpg (notice the missing
  special chars, forexample ä letters).

  So far this seems to happen only for Arial chars.

  Test input.pdf file can be found here: http://62.210.181.5/input.pdf

  
  If I download http://downloads.ghostscript.com/public/ghostscript-9.10.tar.gz, and do:
  tar xvf ghostscript-9.10.tar.gz
  cd ghostscript-9.10
  ./configure
  make
  bin/gs -o output.jpg -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=jpeg input.pdf

  The output is correct.
