John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-2954:
-------------------------------------
I've added more detail to the error message so that we can try and figure this
one out. Can you either pull the latest PDFBox from SVN, or wait for the latest
snapshot (which could be a few hours).

> PDPage page = new PDPage(PDRectangle.A4);

> ADVERTENCIA: Using fallback font ArialMT for base font ZapfDingbats
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: This font type

> If I load {{arialuni.ttf}} font with Type0 it compiles but only get question
> marks instead of the correct characters in the PDF file.
> I have tried PDFBOX 1.8 and doesn´t work either.
