Description

In order to reduce the memory footprint of an ApacheFOP based application, where I have several Java2D based renderers, I created the XML metrics for the fonts used (more then 20). This way org.apache.fop.render.java2d.ConfiguredFontCollection creates instances of LazyFont.

THE PROBLEM:

The generated metrics.xml do not contain the GSUB, GPOS, GDEF tables info . This led to an incorrect generated output.

Eg: instead of this 🇮🇹 the generated pdf has 🇮 🇹.

(I'm working on a for ApacheFOP that supports Surrogate Pairs and I'm testing it with Emojis FOP-1969)
