The code is not done and I've my doubts that it can be done in the same way
as it's done now. When I print from java with Distiller all the fonts and
other object are converted to curves. PdfGraphics2D attempts to keep the
fonts but support for TextLayout is lost. Note that if I convert a
Textlayout to glyph shapes it works correctly in PdfGraphics2D.
