Sorry for any misunderstanding, Albert. To clearify in other words: I never had
argued for my patch if "i just switched a bit and suddenly looks better". I
argued for it because I became convinced that acrobat always starts with the
unicode cmap if it exists, regardless of whether the spec says that or not.

To the contrary: in all the last years when I provided patches to poppler I was
happy that You are there as my counterpart who try to get to the bottom of it.
This often made my patches better and when I was on the wrong track You guided
me back.
