Thanks everyone for the advice.
asciidoctor-web-pdf looks very promising, I was able to install it and
generate documents with no problems.
I think I will pursue that as the first path since it does not depend
on any particular font, and if any problems come up that I can't get
past, go back to the suggestions Dan made to get things working with
ttfunk.
Best,
Jon

I don't know why this is. Regardless, it's outside the scope of this project. It's best to report that to ttfunk (
https://github.com/prawnpdf/ttfunk). In the meantime, I recommend finding another font.
