Tilman Hausherr closed PDFBOX-1068.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
Fix Version/s: (was: 2.0.0)
Example of a sequence in that PDF:
{code}
/F3.0 1 Tf
(import javax.imageio.metadata.*;) Tj
/F3.1 1 Tf
(!) Tj
ET
{code}
Tf = select font
TJ = show text
ET = end text object
So the "/F3.1" font has this exclamation mark. This is an embedded font that
has only one glyph: 33, which is just that. According to my own 2.0 version,
code 33 has a null path. In 1.8 it is tried to read the embedded font with awt;
createFont() fails with a "FontFormatException: Font name not found", and plan
B is to use an awt font, which shows us the "!".
In other words:
- 1.8 awt sometimes can't handle fonts correctly
- this is solved in 2.0 since PDFBOX-490 => duplicate
- the file really has a "!", try copy & paste in Acrobat Reader
> Odd looking question mark at end of every line in rendered text file
