Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-2383:
----------------------------------------

I looked at the license 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing:LiberationFontLicense?rd=Licensing/LiberationFontLicense
 and there might be a risk associated with it. Was under the assumption that as 
we are using LiberationSans in o.a.pdfbox that had been checked.

If we can't use it there will for sure be an alternative.
