Arial is not really suitable for xterm because it wants a fixed-width font. On "real" X11 you can use xfontsel to find a suitable font; you want one which is fixed width and which uses the iso10646 registry but I don't know if you can find one which actually supports both Russian and Chinese glyphs.

text::pdf::ttfont0
Text::PDF::TTFont0(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Text::PDF::TTFont0(3pm)
NAME
Text::PDF::TTFont0 - Inherits from PDF::Dict and represents a TrueType Type 0 font within a PDF file.
DESCRIPTION
A font consists of two primary parts in a PDF file: the header and the font descriptor. Whilst two fonts may share font descriptors, they
will have their own header dictionaries including encoding and widhth information.
INSTANCE VARIABLES
There are no instance variables beyond the variables which directly correspond to entries in the appropriate PDF dictionaries.
METHODS
Text::PDF::TTFont->new($parent, $fontfname. $pdfname)
Creates a new font resource for the given fontfile. This includes the font descriptor and the font stream. The $pdfname is the name by
which this font resource will be known throughout a particular PDF file.
All font resources are full PDF objects.
out_text($text)
Returns the string to be put into a content stream for text to be output in this font. The text is assumed to be UTF8 encoded and the
return string is a glyph sequence for the text. If subsetting is enabled, then all the glyphs returned are also marked for output.
out_glyphs(@n)
Marks the glyphs as being needed in the output font when subsetting. Returns a string to render the glyphs as specified.
width($text)
Returns the width of the string, assuming it to be UTF8 encoded.
outobjdeep($fh, $pdf, %opts)
Handles the creation of the font stream including subsetting at this point. So if you get this far, that's it for subsetting.
ship_out($pdf)
Ship this font out to the given $pdf file context
empty
Empty the font of as much as possible in order to save memory
