> Currently we use .properties files to load the glyph lists, however Java's Properties is not ordered (the properties are stored in a Hashtable) and so the glyphs are not read in the correct order.
> This results in incorrect encoding when calling GlyphList.unicodeToName(), because the Adobe glyph lists are ordered: the default mapping comes first, and auxiliary mappings follow it, for example:
> {code}
> space=0020
> spacehackarabic=0020
> {code}
> Currently in PDFBox, GlyphList.unicodeToName(0x20) returns "spacehackarabic", which is wrong, we always want the first entry in the glyph list.
> We need to move away from using .properties and instead just use Adobe's existing glyph list format, the only difference is that we switch {{=}} for {{;}}.
