Andreas Lehmkühler resolved PDFBOX-941.
---------------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 1.5.0
         Assignee: Andreas Lehmkühler

I added the missing ToUnicode mappings from Adobe. They got lost after the reorganisation of those files (see PDFBOX-494). 

I downloaded the mapping files from http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/pdfmapping/Downloads. They are licensed under the same terms than the other cmap files.

Furthermore I improved the encoding of Type0 fonts. 

Both the text extraction and the rendering now work fine with revision 1059595

> when extracting text from this pdf file, I got this exception, and the text extracted was gibberish.
> 44 [main] ERROR org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDFont  - Error: Could not parse predefined CMAP file for 'Adobe-Japan1-UCS2'
> PDFBox 1.2.1 worked fine with the same file, I wonder why 1.4.0 could not.
