    Description

      I'm trying to use TextToPDF from the main bundle of PDFBox.
      To make different encodings work I've read that the font Doulus should be used.
      http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&id=DoulosSIL_download

      However upload specifying the font with the -ttf options I'm seeing the following exception:

      pacsaar:jocon-test-local mbergmann$ java -jar lib/pdfbox-app-1.8.6.jar TextToPDF -ttf ~/Downloads/DoulosSIL-5.000/DoulosSIL-R.ttf Test33-pdfbox.pdf Test33-TextJP-UTF8.txt
