Hi,

The TrueTypeFont doesn't support mac platform encodings which makes it
impossible to load some of the fonts shipped with Mac OS X.

Attached is a straightforward patch to add the support.

What are the chances of this getting fixed upstream?

btw. Apple's TrueTypeFont implementation doesn't seem to support
CompositeFont so even if it gets to OpenJDK it won't be much help for
loading TTC files. sun.font.TrueTypeFont seems to be handling this
pretty well, apart from the missing support for mac platform encoding.

Kind regards,
Matej Knopp
