PDSimpleFont.determineEncoding will never parse embedded CMAPs
--------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: PDFBOX-1137
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1137
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Text extraction
    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
            Reporter: Antoni Mylka


The enconding of a PDSimpleFont is determined in determineEncoding. It contains 
a series of ifs. Most notably at the end there is a:

if (encoding instanceof COSDictionary) { ... }
else if (encoding instanceof COSStream) { ... }

This is wrong because COSStream is a subclass of COSDictionary, so the program 
will never get into the COSStream-specific block, which is responsible for the 
parsing of embedded CMAPs. The solution would be to reverse the order of those 
ifs.
