John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-2642:
-------------------------------------
Fixing the underlying problem will require a major rework of PDCIDFontType0, as
it wasn't designed for this scenario. I've added some code to detect this
specific problem and log an error, but I'm not in a position to do anything
more, currently.

> UPDATE: The PDF contains a CIDFontType0 which has a FontFile3 containing a
> Type1 PFB font. This is invalid, but Type1C is permitted and the two are
> equivalent, so it should be possible to handle this. However, the current
> design of PD CIDFontType0 does not permit it.
