Yep, this is a good point. I've been overhauling the o.a.p.pdmodel.font API recently to try and get it stable for 2.0. I'm working on Panose substitutions at the moment. We need to obtain a PDFont somehow for missing form fonts (a FontBoxFont is not enough), Tilman's idea of synthesising a font resource is a good one.

> Some forms might not have a default resource (DR) entry for AcroForms or the entry is incomplete. Adobe Reader can handle such situations using default settings.
> We should be ably to handle such situations too.
