      ----------------------------
      The 1.3 version of the Font class has a static method called createFont() that
      accepts a fontFormat parameter and an InputStream. Currently only TrueType
      fonts are supported by this API (fontFormat == TRUETYPE_FONT).

      Support for Adobe Type 1 font rendering should be included in the 1.4 version.
      This should be able to support partial fonts as well as complete fonts so that
      documents with embedded fonts and partially embedded fonts can be rendered in
      Java.
