Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-2360:
----------------------------------------

You are correct that fontlike is used with the PDF spec but it has been given a 
name there which is CIDFont

{quote}
A composite font, also called a Type 0 font, is one whose glyphs are obtained 
from a fontlike object called a CIDFont
{quote}

Now with the new interface you are wrapping common information for different 
font types which is very good. The information returned is also available 
within the spec but is part of the different font definitions. So what about 
something like PDFontCommonProperties.



> PDFont had methods removed
