[jira] [Created] (PDFBOX-4673) Unsupported unicode by font should be displayed as �

Fernando Arellano created PDFBOX-4673:
-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Unsupported unicode by font should be displayed as �
                 Key: PDFBOX-4673
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4673
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Fernando Arellano


When loading a custom font via 
{code:java}
PDType0Font.load(document,this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/fonts/HelveticaNeueLTW01-75Bold.ttf"));
{code}
 

and trying to render a unicode that is not included in the font PDCIDFontType2.java throws 

throw new IllegalArgumentException(
 String.format("No glyph for U+%04X in font %s", unicode, getName()));. 

Invalidating the whole PDF. 

I believe a better implementation would be just print the *replacement character* �
