[OpenJDK 2D-Dev] RFR: 6232267: TrueType Fonts which have only Apple platform names cannot be loaded

[Prasanta Sadhukhan]

Hi Phil,

Looks good to me . One thing is that, the check forplatformID != 
MAC_PLATFORM_ID
shouldn't we do the same in initAllNames()?

Also, in the test, I guess we do not need

33 import java.io.BufferedInputStream;
   35 import java.io.FileInputStream;
   36 import java.io.InputStream;
   37

and copyright should be 2017.

Regards
Prasanta
