John Hewson edited comment on PDFBOX-2372 at 9/21/14 8:57 PM: -------------------------------------------------------------- The file from PDFBOX-563 has a similar issue related to "Standard 14" fonts, only in this case the font is a Type 0 font, which shouldn't be eligible to be treated as a "Standard 14", yet it is anyway. A simple experiment of changing "Arial" for "Xrial" in the PDF file causes Acrobat to render the missing glyphs which means it is treating the name "Arial" in a special manner. (Note that the Adobe supplement specifies Arial as an alias for Helvetica). Because we're not expecting a Type0 font to have any special "Standard 14" handling, the fix will be more complex. was (Author: jahewson): The file from PDFBOX-563 has a similar issue related to "Standard 14" fonts, only in this case the font is a Type 0 font, which shouldn't be eligible to be treated as a "Standard 14", yet it is anyway.
