Description of the new Feature/Bugfix
When FOP is present on the classpath, it will be automatically used to perform glyph substitutions, which are mandatory for complex layout scripts.
But for scripts where glyph substitutions are optional (e.g. Latin ligatures), it makes sense to have an enable/disable flag because glyph substitutions come with drawbacks such as incorrect text when copying from the document.
The PR introduces a new method
Document.setGlyphSubstitutionEnabled
that can be used to disable glyph substitutions when FOP is present.Related Issue: #297
