Andreas Lehmkühler commented on PDFBOX-5384:
--------------------------------------------

In theory the toUnicode mapping isn't involved at all when it comes to 
rendering. It is used for text extraction only.

The given pdf is broken in a couple of ways
* it uses CID type 2 fonts but doesn't embed them
* it claims to use an identity mapping but doesn't
* the toUnicode CMap is named as identity map but it isn't
* the toUnicode CMap doesn't contain any toUnicode mappings
* the toUnicode CMap contains CID-mappings only

There are many workarounds in place to handle malformed pdfs and in the given 
case the toUnicode mapping is involved. Obviously the added one from 
PDFBOX-4322 broke the rendering of this one. Maybe there is a way to support 
both

> The attached PDF uses Tahoma fonts.
> It seems the correct font is used, but it uses the wrong glyphs.
> For example the "6" from the screenshot is definitely from Tahoma Glyph 25 / 
> CID 54, where it should be "S" Glyph 54 / CID 83.
> The "=" in screenshot is Glyph 32 CID 61 where "Z" Glyph 61 CID 90 should be 
> used.
