Description

I'm running into an issue when trying to convert a pdf page to an image. Conditions:

• Pdf file with TrueType font fully embedded
• Encoding: Identity-H (CID)

Although the FontFile2 stream is present, I get (I added extra info logging):

Jun 1, 2010 12:44:38 PM org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDFontFactory createFont
INFO: subType: COSName

{Type0}

Jun 1, 2010 12:44:38 PM org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDFontFactory createFont
INFO: subType: COSName

{CIDFontType2}

test with:

java -jar pdfbox-app-1.2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar PDFToImage -imageType png -startPage 1 -endPage 1 -color rgba -resolution 108 hello-DroidSans-Identity-H.pdf

Attached is a sample pdf with one of the droid fonts fully embedded in the above manner (free, Apache 2 license):

http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=tree;f=data/fonts;hb=HEAD

(The attached file has DroidSans instead of DroidSansFallback as in the log to keep the file size down, but it has the same result)

(I was able to hack fix by changing PDType0 to extends PDTrueTypeFont, but that seems like a terrible hack).

Below are the relevant parts of the pdf that cause the getawtFont issue:
