The font got encoded as WinAnsiEncoding by default which appears to be
invalid.

Try this:

  (pdf:with-document ()
    (pdf:with-page ()
      (let ((font (pdf:get-font "Symbol" pdf::*standard-encoding*)))
        (pdf:in-text-mode
          (pdf:set-font font 36.0)
          (pdf:move-text 100 800)
          (pdf:draw-text "abcdefghABCDEFGH"))))
    (pdf:write-document "foo.pdf"))
