Problems with CJK noto fonts

Bug Report

I have problems rendering chinese/japanese/korean characters with this library.

Description of the problem

I'm trying to create a pdf with chinese characters and some do not display.

I managed to reproduce the issue with a very minimal setup:

Using this font NotoSansCJKsc-Regular.otf.zip
(remember to unzip it) (it comes from google noto fonts https://www.google.com/get/noto/help/cjk/)

And this script:

const fs = require('fs');
const PDFDocument = require('pdfkit');
const doc = new PDFDocument();
doc.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('output.pdf'));
doc.font('NotoSansCJKsc-Regular.otf').fontSize(25);
doc.text('间。楼', 100, 100);
doc.end();

I get this in the output.pdf

Note the missing last character

========================================================

If I remove the first character, the last character displays 🤔

doc.text('。楼', 100, 100);

========================================================

If I render both texts, the last character doesn't display in any of them 🤷

doc.text('间。楼', 100, 100);
doc.text('。楼', 100, 200);

========================================================
If I just change the order in the last 2 texts, it displays correctly 🥴

doc.text('。楼', 100, 100);
doc.text('间。楼', 100, 200);
