> PDFBOX-4882 fixed a bug that made isEmbeddingPermitted() too permissive.  But it introduced a bug that made isEmbeddingPermitted() too restrictive for TTFs with OS2 table versions 0-2.
>  
> TTFs with OS2 table versions 0-2 can have multiple permission bits set.  According to the spec described in 
> [https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/opentype/spec/os2#fstype]
> "in the event that more than one of bits 0 to 3 are set in a given font, then the _least-restrictive permission indicated take precedence_."
> Unfortunately, the current code essentially makes the most restrictive permission take precedence.  This causes pdfbox to throw an error: 
> "This font does not permit embedding"
> when attempting to process fonts that worked fine in pdfbox v2.0.20 and lower
