I guess only I can tell ;-)

Yes, indeed, that is what I get, too.

Aha, here seems to be the difference. I get the CMR font embedded as a Type 1 font:

%!FontType1-1.0: SFRM1000 0.3

/FontBBox{-189 -321 1456 937}readonly def
currentdict end
currentfile eexec
...

I have no clue why which font would get embedded.
So I was just lucky that it worked for me.

Cheers,
Michael
