A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Related to this https://bitbucket.org/Jerady/fontawesomefx/issues/40/fontawesomefx-icons-displayed-as-garbage and this https://github.com/torakiki/pdfsam/issues/166

Loading FontAwesome ttf font results in a Font instance in Ubuntu 64 bits and a null instance in an Ubuntu 32 bits. It seems it does affect only some users and the behavior seems the one described here http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/openjfx-dev/2016-March/018776.html

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
the Font is loaded
ACTUAL -
it returns null on some Ubuntu 32 bits

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced occasionally.
