Package: fonts-urw-base35
Version: 20200910-6
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: jorge.moraleda@gmail.com
Dear Maintainer,
I use fonts as part of a java application I develop. I recently upgraded my
system (to an up-to-date debian bookworm).
After this upgrade all fonts packaged in this packet are unloadable by apache
pdfbox (but fonts in the many other font packages that I have installed all
load fine). This is the relevant portion of the logs showing the error (I am
including logs for the error when loading font "NimbusSans-BoldItalic.pfb" but
logs for other fonts in the package are the same)

I am using apache pdfbox version 2.0.27
(https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.pdfbox/pdfbox)
I am not familiar with fonts, but according to the source code
(https://github.com/apache/pdfbox/blob/trunk/fontbox/src/main/java/org/apache/fontbox/pfb/PfbParser.java)
it appears that pdfbox expects the font files in pfb format to start with
character 0x80 but they do not.
