Hello, well, I finally got it.

The point is that in the compilation process not the newly compiled fontbox was used but an older version of fontbox instaled on my computer: /Library/Java/Extensions/fontbox-1.6.0.jar (Mac). I wasn't aware of the problems I get when building a new pdfbox while an older version is installed, it seems on the Mac the /Library/Java/Extensions/ is preferred over the new compilation. I have other versions of fontbox installed (e.g. in my solr system) but they don't do any harm (it seems, I hope…). Thanks for the patience along the way! Best Thomas
