Which version of DOMPDF? I'm seeing issues with 0.5.1, but 0.6.0 (beta 2) display the correct font. I seem to recall some font issues with that version, but I don't remember the details. If you can't upgrade to 0.6.0 that would be the best solution. Otherwise, try swapping arial and helvetica in your style declaration.
FYI, Arial isn't built into dompdf. It's not part of the core PDF fonts. The core fonts include Helvetica, Courier and Times (plus Symbol and Zapf Dingbats, but those are difficult to use in dompdf).
As for the width problem, your table is set too wide for a standard page. dompdf equates pixels with points (for most cases). You specify A4 which has a pt width of 595, but your table has a width of 757. Unless you meant to use landscape orientation your table will be too wide. Either use less than 595 or, to make it easy, use 100%.
