> A parser for Type1C CFF fonts needs to be written.  Adobe 
> technical spec 5176 CFF talks about the file format.  It is a 
> binary format that looks pretty straighforward, should be 
> pretty fun to write a parser for it.
> This is not a high priority right now, but if someone is willing 
> to write the parser I will integrate it.  If you would like to write 
> a parser please let me know and we can discuss, it needs to 
> be somewhat robust as the data structures it creates should 
> support modifying data so the font can be written back to a 
> stream, which will support embedding fonts back into the pdf 
> document.
> If this parser is written, I may start a separate project that just 
> deals with font files in java, PDFBox currently has parsers for 
> TTF/PFB and soon CFF I see more advanced font 
> requirements in the pipeline, this type of functionality is really 
> outside the scope of PDFBox but I don't believe anything else 
> exists.  I am sure if I start a font library project there are other 
> java libraries that could make use of it as well
