Hi,
I am trying to use iText v0.98, for PDF document
generation. I am using Graphics2D feature for
rendering. My requirement is that, I should be able to
generate the PDF even in the absense of X11 server on
Linux platform. I made few changes to the source code,
so as to stop instantiation of java.awt.Font and
FontMetrics. Instead I have added dummy classes, that
will be asked for this information in the absense of
X11 server. I have used BaseFont.getWidth(String text)
API in the absense of X11 server and it worked just
fine. But now I am stuck with APIs related to height
calculations like getAscent(), getDescent(),
getHeight(). While going through the code, I found
that a lot of handling is present for width
calculations, involving some hmtx table in
TrueTypeFont. So, I want to know how to get the height
related information from the font file, something
similar to hmtx table maybe?
Thanks,
Nikhil Khedkar
