             Summary: PDF fulltext index fails.
                 Key: PDFBOX-3004
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3004
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Arkady Zalkowitsch


PDF fulltext index fails when font dictionary in there contains one entry for the font Helvetica and an entry for Encoding whose value does not represent a font at all.

The PDF Object in PDF looks like this:
obj = {
  "/Fields": [ 12 0 R ],
  "/DA": "/Helvetica 0 Tf 0 g",
  "/DR": {
    "/Font": {
      "/Helvetica": "11 0 R",
      "/Encoding": {
        "/PDFDocEncoding": "10 0 R"
      }
  }
  "/NeedAppearances": true
}

PDFBox tries to parse that "font" called Encoding and fails doing so. but PDResources.getFonts() only logs the resulting exception:
try { 
  newFont = PDFontFactory.createFont( (COSDictionary)font ); 
} catch (IOException exception) {
  LOG.error("error while creating a font", exception); 
}
