xpdf it complains about missing fonts

xpdf hl5370d_ukeng_usr.pdf

I think they should be pointing to:
/usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/
So I added to /etc/xpdfrc 

displayFontT1 Times-Roman               /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n021003l.pfb
displayFontT1 Times-Italic              /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n021023l.pfb
displayFontT1 Times-Bold                /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n021004l.pfb
displayFontT1 Times-BoldItalic          /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n021024l.pfb
displayFontT1 Helvetica                 /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n019003l.pfb
displayFontT1 Helvetica-Oblique         /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n019023l.pfb
displayFontT1 Helvetica-Bold            /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n019004l.pfb
displayFontT1 Helvetica-BoldOblique     /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n019024l.pfb
displayFontT1 Courier                   /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n022003l.pfb
displayFontT1 Courier-Oblique           /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n022023l.pfb
displayFontT1 Courier-Bold              /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n022004l.pfb
displayFontT1 Courier-BoldOblique       /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n022024l.pfb
displayFontT1 Symbol                    /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/s050000l.pfb
displayFontT1 ZapfDingbats              /usr/share/fonts/urw-fonts/d050000l.pfb

The missing fonts message is gone but I still get a warning:
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion

On my backup/old system I don't have any pointer to fonts listing in "xpdfrc" like:
displayFontT1 ....

so what is the correct setup?

In addition on my older system the xpdf sidebar menu has a nice looking fonts on the new one they look too small, hardly visible, which setting it depends on?


Reproducible: Always

I've follow those instruction in that bug and made changes to "eclass" 

I've modified:
/usr/portage/eclass/xorg-2.eclass 
from:
            FONT_OPTIONS+="
                --disable-all-encodings"
to
            FONT_OPTIONS+="
                --disable-all-encodings
                --enable-iso8859-1"

and recompiled: media-fonts/font-misc-misc
It did not help me.
