Hello everybody,
I’m trying to produce a PDF/A-1b which contains both japanese and latin
characters but I get the following error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No glyph for U+0082 in font
BitstreamVeraSans-Roman

org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDCIDFontType2.encode(PDCIDFontType2.java:382)

The same problem occurs if I try to run the example at
https://svn.apache.org/viewvc/pdfbox/trunk/examples/src/main/java/org/apache/pdfbox/examples/pdmodel/EmbeddedFonts.java?revision=1703059&view=co

If I’m right the problem is that the font is not able to render that character,
what font can I use or how can I solve this issue?
I’m working on both Mac OS X El Captain and Ubuntu 12.04-32bit, Java 7.
