PdfProcessing: Support for OTF font file format

Currently, when registering *.otf font file with FontsRepository.RegisterFont method an exception is thrown during the font creation. 

WORKAROUND:  The font file may be converted to TTF format (*.ttf) which is successfully registered. This conversion may be achieved with FontForge by opening the font file and then choosing File -> Generate Fonts -> TrueType -> Generate. More information on FontForge program may be found here: https://fontforge.github.io/en-US/

I ran into this issue. It was only by accident that I tried converting to TTF and found it worked. Support for OTF would be a great help.

Supporting .otf fonts would be great for me too. I run into the same exception.
