> * The attached PFB font can be opened in FontForge but PfbParser in fontbox
> fails to read it.
> * The problem is that fontbox assumes there are three records (ascii,
> binary, ascii) in the PFB file but the binary part is split into multiple
> shorter chunks (i.e. ascii, binary, ..., binary, ascii).
> * I didn't find that this is forbidden and according to FontForge behavior
> it seems to be valid.
> * The fix seems to be easy, it is probably sufficient to concatenate the
> binary records together in PfbParser and the result will work correctly.
