[jira] [Created] (FOP-2910) Create valid PDF/A part 2 or 3 with font subset

Roberto Benedetti created FOP-2910:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Create valid PDF/A part 2 or 3 with font subset
                 Key: FOP-2910
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-2910
             Project: FOP
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: renderer/pdf
    Affects Versions: 2.4
         Environment: OS: Windows 10
Java: 1.8
            Reporter: Roberto Benedetti
         Attachments: samples.zip

When creating PDF/A-2a or PDF/A-3b with font embedding mode "subset" the resulting PDF in not valid according to veraPDF which reports:
 ??Specification: ISO 19005-3:2012, Clause: 6.2.11.4, Test number: 4. If the FontDescriptor dictionary of an embedded CID font contains a CIDSet stream, then it shall identify all CIDs which are present in the font program, regardless of whether a CID in the font is referenced or used by the PDF or not.??

Embedding the complete font seems to solve the validation error but resulting files are very large.

When exporting files as PDF/A from Microsoft Word the PDF is valid and it only contains a subset of the font.

The only difference I noticed is that Word does not create a CIDSet.

File [^samples.zip] contains two PDF/A created by Word and the files used to create the same content with FOP.
