[poppler] pdf chinese font broken

[suzuki toshiya]

Thank you for giving example of yet another font that requires
TrueType hinting for readable result. DFFangSong is not yet
blacklisted in FreeType2 (if you want to see the list, please
check http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/freetype/freetype2.git/tree/src/truetype/ttobjs.c#n155
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/freetype/freetype2.git/tree/src/truetype/ttobjs.c#n256 )

I will add it soon, and the next release of FreeType2 2.4.11
will know it by default. How could I get DFFangSong font?

Also some people may say "the blacklist should be configurable
to avoid the repeated request of the update"; now a public API
to manipulate the internal rasterization parameter is being
discussed among FreeType developers. I will try to the blacklist
configurable via new API, but yet I don't have good candidate
about "which library should manage the blacklist in runtime".
I don't think poppler is the best candidate.
