            Change org.icepdf.core.pbobjects.fonts.ofont.Font:468 "java.awt.Font.PLAIN" to "style"

            Description

            When viewing pdfs created using iText (all I have for testing with), any style information for a core 14 font is ignored, ie plain version of font is always displayed. System fonts show bold/italic text as expected.

            I found in the source the cause of this issue: org.icepdf.core.pbobjects.fonts.ofont.Font:466 includes java.awt.Font.PLAIN in the constuctor, where this should use the previously determined style variable for this value.
