Please understand that the rendering has nothing to do with the text
extraction. A font (very simplified explanation!) is 1. a map from a code to a
glyph (= an image), 2. a map from a code to a character value. The PDF file has
only the codes and the info where they are to be displayed. IMHO the second map
is incorrect.
