Okay, so it's clear that the Toshiba has an issue with how we handle TrueType/Type42 fonts - I know I'm repeating myself, but the Postscript is *totally* correct, many other interpreters from many source handle it happily, and both myself and another engineer with a great deal of Postscript

Tomas, Thanks for taking the time to report it to the manufacturer (not many users do!). If I'm honest, I doubt you'll get much response (based on past experience), but as I said before, I think we need to start making it clear to printer makers that these broken implementations aren't
