That's one of the requirements of PDF/X.
If you don't embed the font, iText will throw an Exception.

Helvetica is one of the 14 standard Type1 fonts (AKA the base14 fonts,
formerly known as the 'built-in fonts').

That's documented in the tutorial: the base14 fonts are never embedded
regardless of the embedded parameter; the same goes for CJK fonts.
Some other fonts are always embedded, even if you set the embedded
parameter to false.

To solve this problem, you should use another font
(for instance arial.ttf, it looks very much the same as Helvetica).
