Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-2662:
----------------------------------------
Yes, the idea was that e.g. if there is a name such as Courier in the DA we
could use that to get a Font from FontMapping by looking up the name as this is
a valid Postscript name. Of course if the DA uses something like F0 and that is
not defined then we'd need to default to something. Looking at the current
mapping code there already routines which could be used. And maybe e.g. for
AcroForms we could extend the platform fonts by adding mappings similar to how
Acrobat handles that as outlined in PDFBOX-2661
> Implement fallback if there are no AcroForm default resources
