1) Convince pdfbox upstream that .t1 is a reasonable file extension
for a binary Type 1 font file and in fact means the same as .pfb.

NB: The file command reveals some subtle differences between bothformats that pdfbox probably isn't aware of:


$ file *

NimbusRoman-BoldItalic.t1: PostScript Type 1 font text(NimbusRoman-BoldItalic 1.00)n022004l.pfb: PostScript Type 1 font program data(NimbusMonL-Bold 1.06)
