7 Type 0 font within a PDF file.

10 A font consists of two primary parts in a PDF file: the header and the
11 font descriptor. Whilst two fonts may share font descriptors, they will
12 have their own header dictionaries including encoding and widhth
13 information.
14
16 There are no instance variables beyond the variables which directly
17 correspond to entries in the appropriate PDF dictionaries.
