Hi Martin,
because of some some restrictions in the license the glyphlist.txt isn't
compatible with the Apache License. Therefore we have to remove the
files in question from the svn. The file will be automatically
downloaded by ant if you run it with the target "compile" or just with
default target "dist". The destination directory is
$PDFBOX_HOME/target/classes/Resources.
I hope the documentation will be updated soon...
Thanks for the hint.
