John Hewson resolved PDFBOX-2573.
---------------------------------
       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 2.0.0

I've altered readEncoding to avoid the recursive use of isSymbolic, which allows our usual font substitution mechanism to work. However we're still not recognising the font as a standard 14 Helvetica like Adobe Reader does. I've opened a new issue for this: PDFBOX-2578.
