Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-5779:
-----------------------------------------
Your test code won't work with 3.0.1. Adjusting your code will still result in
the stream getting read into memory first. Reading font data needs random
access, so it will be needed to read the full stream first.
I see that your time comes from 1000 iterations. So you're complaining about
50ms vs 29ms, i.e. a difference of 21ms. You could reduce that by loading the
TrueTypeFont object outside of the loop, if this is about creating a mass
mailing.

> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 3.0.1 PDFBox
> Reporter: bai yuan
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: arial.ttf, pdfbox.java

>
> Run the attached program, then open the code on line 41 and comment out the
> code on line 44, and compare the time consumption of the two font loading
> methods.
> Why does using font streams have poorer performance compared to using font
> files? Is this a limitation? If I can only use font streams, are there any
> ways to improve performance?
