-------------------------------------------------------------

I've noticed some fonts where BaseFont and FontName are different. FontName 
isn't supposed to be used, but sometimes it contains a good value, when 
BaseFont contains a bad value. Might be worth investigating, see PDFBOX-2338, 
p3, "Symbol,Italic".

> The file from PDFBOX-2573 has a font "Helvetica~1d3" which Adobe Reader 
> recognises as a "base 14" Helvetica. We should implement a similarly 
> forgiving font-matching mechanism for cases where there is no FontDescriptor.
