Okay, I finally figured out what was the problem: it's not the 
ZapfDingbats font but Symbol that makes a difference.

When I add this chunk of text into my "~/.fonts.conf" file, the PDF is 
rendered correctly:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
    <alias binding="same">
    <family>Symbol</family>
    <prefer><family>DejaVu Serif</family></prefer>
    </alias>
</fontconfig>

"DejaVu Serif" font can be replaced by another one.
