    Description

      If a pdf doesn't provide any mapping (neither an encoding nor a toUnicode mapping) we have to decide where to get a suitable mapping ourselves. We can't use the internal font mapping of the type1C font as it doesn't work in every case, see PDFBOX-2377 which provides a solution for the 1.8-branch.
