     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1178?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Eric Leleu resolved PDFBOX-1178.
--------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Fixed, If the CharProc is null we set a GlyphDetail with an exception. (whatever is the Width value) If the character is used in a TextOperator, the GlyphDetail will throw the exception.

> I have got a problem with a font in a PDF/A where LastChar entry seems badly defined (255). I will add the file if possible. The file is valid with commercial validators.
> File cannot be validated due to NullPointerException because the case "character stream not existing and character width not defined" is not handle. I join a patch that accept that character are not defined. 
> With this patch, validation works. I put "TODO" where new case have to be handled.
