Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-5918:
-----------------------------------------

Is this you?
https://github.com/apache/pdfbox/pull/209

This looks like you've been quietly working for 7 months on this, wow.

We need to do some legal stuff first: we can only commit something that has the 
appropriate open source license or that you did yourself. I doubt that the 
AdobeDevanagari-Regular font has an Apache license. Same for the Nirmala font 
which is copyright Microsoft. And likely more.
Did you do those .txt files yourself, generate them, or something else?
All new files need an Apache header, unless you got it from somewhere else so 
we need to know their license.

If possible, remove formatting changes.

Please explain the change in GSubWorkerFactory, doesn't this deactivate the 
current Devangari code?
