[jira] Created: (PDFBOX-663) Ensuring non-null FontDescriptor for external TrueType fonts

Ensuring non-null FontDescriptor for external TrueType fonts
------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: PDFBOX-663
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-663
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: PDModel
    Affects Versions: 1.1.0
            Reporter: Villu Ruusmann
             Fix For: 1.1.0
         Attachments: PDFBox.patch

Class PDTrueTypeFont assumes that there is always a non-null FontDescriptor(Dictionary) available. However, I've seen this assumption failing with a NullPointerException in method PDTrueTypeFont#drawString when trying to render PDF documents that make use of external TrueType fonts.

I've implemented a small patch that initializes empty FontDescriptorDictionary if one is missing, and tries to fill it in with information available from the external TTF resource.

--------------------------------------

+1 Looks good to me too. Do you have time to commit the patch, or should I? I'm hoping to wrap up the 1.1.0 release shortly.
