Problem description
===================
Method of class java.awt.Font
public static Font createFont(int fontFormat, InputStream fontStream)
    throws java.awt.FontFormatException, java.io.IOException {
does not throw IOException if the fontStream cannot be completely read.
In this case method throws FontFormatException.
It seems IOException is catched by implementation and declaration of
IOException in throws block is unnecessary.


Minimized test:
===============
------- FontTest03.java -------
import java.awt.*;
import java.io.*;

public class FontTest03 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        InputStream fontStream = new InputStream() {
            public int read() throws IOException {
                throw new IOException("Test Exception");
            }
        };
        Font font = null;
        try {
            font = Font.createFont(Font.TRUETYPE_FONT, fontStream);
        } catch (FontFormatException ffe) {
            System.out.println("Unexpected exception " + ffe);
            System.exit(1);
        } catch (IOException ioe) {
            System.out.println("OKAY");
            System.exit(0);
        }
        System.out.println("IOException expected");
    }
}
