We use  pdfbox to create a png preview from a pdf. 


With the attached test.pdf we have a special issue.


With older pdfbox versions (<=2.0.31 or <= 3.0.2) the umlauts are rendered 
correctly into the png. (see test_2.0.31.png or test_3.0.2.png )

Whereas with newer versions (2.0.32 - 2.0.35 or 3.0.3 - 3.0.6) the umlauts are 
missing (see test_2.0.32.png or test_3.0.3.png )

and errors are logged:

{{Nov 25, 2025 4:10:55 PM org.apache.fontbox.ttf.GlyfCompositeDescript 
initDescriptions}}
{{SEVERE: java.io.IOException: composite glyph maximum level reached.}}


The test.pdf has no issues in Acrobat, Chrome or ghostview.
