John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-3403:
-------------------------------------
Just to add a little more background here, the DictionaryEncoding class in
PDFBox is PDFBox's internal representation of what a dictionary encoding
logically is, not a direct analog of the data in the PDF. To simplify what is
an extremely complex process we have some distinct separations of concerns
surrounding encodings so that the consumers of these classes don't have to
handle the many possible failure cases (as pretty much any piece of data in a
PDF file can be missing, incorrect, or in need of repair). This prevents the
consumers from becoming error-handling spaghetti.
