>                 Key: PDFBOX-4565
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4565
>             Project: PDFBox
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: FontBox, PDModel
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.15
>            Reporter: Henning von Bargen
>            Priority: Trivial
>   Original Estimate: 10m
>  Remaining Estimate: 10m

> The constructors for the classes PDPanoseClassification and CIDSystemInfo are package-visible only (not public).
> This makes coding a different FontProvider similar to FileSystemFontProvider an unnecessarily hard task.
> Background:
> I'm working on replacing iText with PDFBox for Eclipse BIRT. One task is to support BIRTs fontconfig.xml for locating TTF fonts etc.
> Obviously I need something simlar to the FileSystemFontProvider, but instead of using the file system directly, use the information in BIRTs fontconfig.xml file.
> So I started with copying FileSystemFontProvider to a new class ConfigFontProvider in a different package.
> Now this fails because the classes PDPanoseClassification and CIDSystemInfo have non-public (package-only) constructors. So I'd have to copy a whole bunch of source files in order to make this work.
