Michael Klink commented on PDFBOX-3403:
---------------------------------------
... and even in this situation where neither explicit nor implicit base
encoding is known, there is no need to throw an exception as the *Differences*
cover all glyphs of the font.
Furthermore, if used in text extraction contexts only, a proper *ToUnicode* map
would suffice, no need to know the encoding.
Thus, in addition to supporting *MacExpertEncoding* one should consider never
to throw that exception at all.
