Bob Swanson created PDFBOX-1355:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Truetype font loaded in 1.6.0 (and previous), does not
load in 1.7.0
Key: PDFBOX-1355
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1355
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Bug
Components: PDModel
Affects Versions: 1.7.0
Environment: MAC OS Tiger
Reporter: Bob Swanson
I have been using a particular TrueType font with
many previous versions of PDFBox. It loaded and worked fine
up to version 1.6.0. Now at level 1.7.0, I get a
NullPointerException when attempting to load this
TTF file:
Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException
java.lang.NullPointerException

My testcase (simply performing a loadTTF()) works with 1.6.0
of PDFBox. This font is certainly an oldie, but it does validate
using "Font Book" on my Mac. That program looks through a TrueType font,
checking all internal tables for correctness.
I have attached a copy of the .ttf file.
