Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-2624:
-----------------------------------------
Why would they do that? The call is deprecated. No developer would create a new
class with a deprecated call. Either the declaration should be un-deprecated,
and/or there should be a javadoc explaining that the other one is not to be
used for PDF/A, but that is useful for normal documents and makes smaller files
thanks to subsetting. That "PDType0Font.load" javadoc is possibly hard to
understand as it is now for an average developer who just wants to use a TT
font in a document and has never heard about "Type 0 fonts" and a "Type2 CID
Font descendant".
