You are right – it's not there. It looks like this PDF was created by a producer that did something stupid :(. Unfortunately, there is a lot of that out there.

In there, I can't find the Helvetica Bold font in the resources, but the DA streams all contain the /HeBo when specifying the font. About forcing to Dingbats, poppler only forces Dingbats to render the checkboxes and the radio buttons even on pdf files that don't have Dingats in their resources (that's my understanding of the code, maybe I am mistaken). It just happened that I could re-use the code to force adding resources of missing fonts.

However, they are fairly standard…so if you must map, then map correctly (not just to Dingbats for all).

You will find a proof-of-concept patch, where I refactor the code we use to force ZapDingbats to render any of the standard 14 fonts given by the short refs. So the first question is, Do we want a feature like this? If so, reviews to make this mergable are most than welcome. Greetings José
