-------------------------------------
Summary: impossible to use own TrueTypeFonts in acroForm (and font
also not embedded)
Key: PDFBOX-4645
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4645
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Bug
Components: AcroForm, PDModel
Affects Versions: 2.0.16, 2.0.15, 2.0.14, 2.0.13, 2.0.12
Reporter: André Hertwig
Hi
I have a PDF form and want to add additional Fonts, because the default fonts
does not allow cyrillic or greek chars.
I Add the font as following (Libertation-Sans-Regular):
{code}
PDResources formResources = acroForm.getDefaultResources();
try (InputStream defaultTTFont1 = new FileInputStream(myFontFile)){
PDFont font2 = PDType0Font.load(pdfDocument, defaultTTFont1, true);
COSName fontName = formResources.add(font2);
}
acroForm.setDefaultResources(formResources);
{code}
I debugged it, the valiable ttf in
When filling a text field with for example cyrillic letters an exception
occurs, than i change the defaultAppereance of that field using the initially
added Font.
But the original TTF will not really used, instead there wil be created new
font classes with a TTF of null, so it seems to be impossible to use a
different TTF.
Furthermore the font will not be embedded in the resulting PDF.
{code}
PDCIDFontType2.<init>(COSDictionary, PDType0Font, TrueTypeFont) line: 75
<- initialized with TrueTypeFont = null
PDCIDFontType2.<init>(COSDictionary, PDType0Font) line: 62
PDFontFactory.createDescendantFont(COSDictionary, PDType0Font) line: 139
PDType0Font.<init>(COSDictionary) line: 192
PDFontFactory.createFont(COSDictionary, ResourceCache) line: 97
PDResources.getFont(COSName) line: 146
PDDefaultAppearanceString.processSetFont(List<COSBase>) line: 173
PDDefaultAppearanceString.processOperator(Operator, List<COSBase>) line: 132
PDDefaultAppearanceString.processAppearanceStringOperators(byte[]) line: 108
PDDefaultAppearanceString.<init>(COSString, PDResources) line: 86
PDTextField(PDVariableText).getDefaultAppearanceString() line: 93
AppearanceGeneratorHelper.<init>(PDVariableText) line: 100
PDTextField.constructAppearances() line: 263
PDTextField(PDTerminalField).applyChange() line: 228
PDTextField.setValue(String) line: 219
{code}
As a result of this behavoir i get the following warning:
{code}
WARN org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDCIDFontType2 - Using fallback font
LiberationSans for CID-keyed TrueType font LiberationSans-Regular
{code}
When opening the PDF afterwards, I will get an error from AcrobatReader, that
the font "LiberationSans" could be found, because the font is not embedded...
like my own fonts..
I tried it back to version 2.0.12 always the same behavior.
