---------------------------------------
Summary: Can't create text with PDFType1Font.ZAPF_DINGBATS or
PDFType1Font.SYMBOL without installed fonts
Key: PDFBOX-3659
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3659
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0.4
Reporter: Tilman Hausherr
On a system with no fonts, it is not possible to create PDF files that use the
Standard 14 Symbol and Zapf Dingbats fonts. The current code tries to look at
the generic fallback font (LiberationSans), which of course doesn't have it.
But this isn't needed - we have all the metrics needed for the standard 14
fonts and don't need any actual font.
Solution: change {{PDType1Font.encode()}} so that it doesn't use the generic
font for standard 14 fonts.
