Okay, this should be fixed now.
The problem was due to the fonts being added to the reasources after each
page. It is now added at the end, in stopRenderer.
This also caused the npe that you were experiencing (I'm not sure how,
something to do with setting characters as used)
I'm not sure about the problem letters, I couldn't get the font file. Maybe
someone else can check if this is still a problem.

OK, great. I will create another distro, retire 0.20.0, and put up 0.20.1,
this evening.
(build.xml will also reflect Chetan Vig's proposed changes).
