Hi, For your information:
I had a problem with the Sample OCR-B fonts supplied by IDautomation.com. This font has a Windows Symbol encoding (PID=3, EID=0) which caused the TTFReader to say: Unicode cmap table not present As a solution I remapped the Symbol encoding to ANSI encoding which is required by TTFReader. (PID = 3, EID = 1). I did it with Softy(http://users.iclway.co.uk/l.emmett/) manually, because I could only access that software (*sigh*). This is not the best solution. I donwloaded FontLab demo, which has a save option "Use following codepage for first 256 characters". I think this is the automatic way to change the Symbol encoding to ANSI encoding. (I never tried. The demo version cannot save into .ttf format.) I tried to use another font called alphabet.ttf (Created by <ank> Austin Kurowski) to test the font using and ran into the problem: java.io.EOFException: Reached EOF, file size=24372 offset=87128 I loaded the font into Softy, set the mapping for space to 32 (it was 32 originally) and saved the new mapping. (Nothing really changed. Only the mapping was regenerated.) Now TTFReader was able to read the font file and create the metrics for the font and after some configuration in userconfig.xml the font appeared in the .pdf file. That's all for now.
