I'd like to do a very simple thing in fact: parse in an existing PDF, add some 
annotations to it with PoDoFo whilst it's in memory, and export the PDF into a 
file. As in, the existing document should be unmodified, but I simply add 
annotations in certain positions in the document. I don't need any of the font 
metric stuff, but I thought it would be necessary as  PdfFontMetrics.h is 
imported in lots of places.
