>             Project: PDFBox
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: PDModel
>    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.
