Hi everybody,
I got no response but figured it out. You have to load the TrueTypeFont and
then you need to call enableGsubFeature("lnum").
TrueTypeFont ttf = new TTFParser().parse(is);
ttf.enableGsubFeature("lnum);
Maybe this answer helps somone out.

Betreff: Font-Handling
Hi everybody,
I try to use a TrueTypeFont https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Playfair+Display
with its embedded "Upper Case Numbers".
The font includes "normal" numbers from Unicode +0030 until +0039.
Additionally there are Numbers which can be used in InDesign as upper case.
They are bigger and have another appearance.
When I open the font using Fontforge they are visible. But they have the same
Unicode, but another hex- (0x1011a-0x10123) and int-Value (65818 until 65827).
In an PDF-Example from InDesign the text "29" with this glyphs has the
following PDF-Code:
BT
/C2_0 1 Tf
0 Tw 42.5815 0 0 42.5815 865.3147 1343.9668 Tm
<031C0323>Tj
ET
031C means 2
0323 means 9
The Font has following codes:
12 dict begin
begincmap
/CIDSystemInfo
<< /Registry (Adobe)
/Ordering (UCS) /Supplement 0 >> def
/CMapName /Adobe-Identity-UCS def
/CMapType 2 def
1 begincodespacerange
<0000> <FFFF>
endcodespacerange
2 beginbfchar
<031C> <0032>
<0323> <0039>
endbfchar
endcmap CMapName currentdict /CMap defineresource pop end end
endstream
endobj
How can I do this with PDF-Box?
Thanks in advance
