Sadly seems that I need to find another media to push this forward and
to find out how to debug this more.

Any hints from anyone? Who to talk, how to start myself to look for the
bug?

  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.
