> Subtype is parsed as "Type0" by PDFBox, but parsed as "Type1" by Adobe Reader.
> This is not a bug of PDFBox.
> The reason is TCPDF 4.5.041 generate font AdobeSongStd-Light with bad subtype "Type0".
> It should be "Type1".
> I have test the following codes and they work.
> File: org/apache/pdfbox/pdmodel/font/PDFontFactory.java
> Method: public static PDFont createFont( COSDictionary dic ) throws IOException
> Original:
> else if( subType.equals( COSName.TYPE0 ) )
> {
>     retval = new PDType0Font( dic );
> }
> Fixed:
> else if( subType.equals( COSName.TYPE0 ) )
> {
>     COSName encoding = (COSName)dic.getDictionaryObject(COSName.ENCODING);
>     retval = (encoding!=null) ? new PDType1Font( dic ) : new PDType0Font( dic );
> }
> With such patch PDFBox will act like Adobe Reader.
