Solution

  • You are using PDFBox 2.x code with PDFBox 3.x in a context where these versions differ, see the PDFBox 3.0 Migration Guide:

    Static instances for Standard 14 fonts removed

    The static instances of PDType1Font for the standard 14 fonts were removed as the underlying COSDictionary isn't supposed to be immutable which led to several issues.

    A new constructor for PDType1Font was introduced to create a standard 14 font. The new Enum Standard14Fonts.FontName is the one and only parameter and defines the name of the standard 14 font for which the instance of PDType1Font is created for. That instance isn't a singleton anymore and has to be recreated if necessary or cached by the user if suitable.
