OS2WindowsMetricsTable.FSTYPE_EDITIBLE (fontbox) should be 8 instead
of 4
According to
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/opentype/spec/os2#fstype the
value for "Editable embedding" (OS2WindowsMetricsTable.FSTYPE_EDITIBLE) is
8. It seems that, due to copy-pasting, it has 4, the same as "Preview &
Print embedding" (OS2WindowsMetricsTable.FSTYPE_PREVIEW_AND_PRINT).
I was testing system fonts for embeddability by using a mask calculated by
"OS2WindowsMetricsTable.FSTYPE_EDITIBLE |
OS2WindowsMetricsTable.FSTYPE_PREVIEW_AND_PRINT" and the usual fonts kept
failing.
Thanks in advance,
Constantine

Thank you, fixed:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4473
This will be in the next-to-next version (2.0.15) because 2.0.14 is
being prepared / voted, so until then you'll have to use your own constant.
