Non-simple font?

Hi all,

I just ran across this well-documented issue.  Is there a known workaround at 
this point and if so, what is it?   

java.io.IOException: Error: Don't know how to calculate the position for non-
simple fonts
	at 
org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.form.PDAppearance.getTextPosition(PDAppearance.java:616)


 The AcroForm has a PDTextbox made up of PDTextbox, and (naturally) the 
job is to fill text into one of the inner ones.
