Summary: FileSystemFontProvider cache instability
Key: PDFBOX-3001
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3001
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0.0
Reporter: John Hewson
Assignee: John Hewson
FileSystemFontProvider uses Java's Preferences API to cache font metadata,
however it doesn't seem to work out of the box on Windows (due to file
permissions) and one user on the mailing list has complained that on Linux file
paths with more than 80 characters can't be handed. Serializable is also slow.
It looks like Preferences wasn't a good choice here. We're going to need to
roll our own cache file format and save it somewhere we have write access to.
