Erik Hetzner commented on TIKA-1182:
------------------------------------
The pdfbox project is suggesting that, because this is a bad font, we should
try to precheck the font with java.awt.Font.createFont. I have modified
TrueTypeParser.java to do this. It passes all tests and does not go into an
infinite loop or blow out the memory, but I don't know if this will work with
Tika. Patch attached.
