Hi Leonard, Thanks for your help. Could you please open the PDF I uploaded http://www.nabble.com/file/p16905159/textfield.pdf
On my machine the weired thing is when this pdf is opened, the font is not what I set in the java code. But if you click the text and then do some modification to the text, then the font changes to be what I set in my java code. My question is , why Adobe reader knows the correct font only after I click the text and do some change to it ? Is there any thing I can do to make Adobe reader use the correct font when the pdf file is opened, not wait until I click it and do some change to it ? Thanks a lot.
