The supplied example doesn't seem to be the same file as supplied for bug
#691345 which makes it difficult to compare. However the first thing I would do
is alter the (Unicode) to (Identity) in cidfmap. Note however that both work
for me with the current version of GS and the file from bug #691345.

My cidfmap entry is:

/Arial <<
/FileType /TrueType
/SubfontID 0
/Path (/windows/fonts/arial.ttf)
/CSI [(Identity) 0]
>> ;

Which works apparently corectly with the only file I have to test against.

Note; the use of a TrueType font on disk as a substitute for a missing CIDFont
is not guaranteed (the two font technologies haev differences), though it does
often produce acceptable results. Much better to embed the font in the first
place.
