             Summary: ZapfDingbats should use its own glyph list
                 Key: PDFBOX-2317
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2317
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: PDModel
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: John Hewson


Rendering the file from PDFBOX-2307-159827 results in the log message:

{code}
WARNING: No Unicode mapping for a73 (1) in font ZapfDingbats
{code}

The reason is that Zapf Dingbats doesn't use the Adobe Glyph List, it uses its own special glyph list. This is explained in the PDF spec, and the download can be found at http://sourceforge.net/adobe/aglfn/wiki/Home/

We need to make use of this glyph list specifically for the ZapfDingbats fonts, the most flexible approach is probably to have GlyphList instances associated with PDFonts.
