Description

I tried to build pdfbox 1.8.6 (and 1.8.7) using IKVM according to this instructions. Everything went fine, but If I tested this code below on some pdf (e.g. PDF) I get exception on line with writeText. If I tested the same with pdfbox 1.8.5 I had no problems.

class MyPDFTextStripper : PDFTextStripper {
  ...
  java.io.StringWriter outputStream = new java.io.StringWriter();
  writeText(document, outputStream);   // Exception
  ...
}

Exception:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.TypeInitializationException' 
occurred in pdfbox-1.8.7.dll

Additional information: The type initializer for 
'org.apache.fontbox.cmap.CMap' threw an exception.
