Tilman Hausherr resolved PDFBOX-2935.
-------------------------------------
    Resolution: Fixed

Thanks for the report. According to the specification, this MUST be an indirect object, thus there should have been an exception long ago already. So either we have ignored that item, or there is no file "in the wild" that uses this feature. If you have one and can share it, we'd be interested.

> PDFontSetting.getFont() :
> {code}
> public PDFont getFont() throws IOException
>     {
>         PDFont retval = null;
>         COSBase font = fontSetting.get( 0 );
>         if( font instanceof COSDictionary )
>         {
>             retval = PDFontFactory.createFont( (COSDictionary)font );
>         }
>         return retval;
>     }
> {code}
> If font is referenced as indirect object this method returns null, while font is valid and present in document. 
> Example :
>  {code}
> 10 0 obj
> <<
> /Font [13 0 R 60000]
> /Type /ExtGState
> >>
> endobj
> 13 0 obj
> <<
> /BaseFont /ASJKFO+Arial-BoldMT
> /Encoding /WinAnsiEncoding
> /FirstChar 65
> /FontDescriptor 16 0 R
> /LastChar 65
> /Subtype /TrueType
> /Type /Font
> /Widths [722]
> >>
> endobj
> {code}
