I'm trying to embed a font into the PDF which works perfectly, except when
special characters are used.
First of i register a directory
FontFactory.registerDirectory("./fonts")
After this the font name is checked and used if it's registered which in my
case it is:
if FontFactory.isRegistered(font.downcase)
return new Font(FontFactory.getFont(font, BaseFont.WINANSI,
BaseFont.EMBEDDED).getBaseFont());
This works fine as mentioned above but only with a-zA-Z0-9 but when using
umlauts etc. it's not displayed. While those are supported by the font (Gill
Sans).
When i look in the pdf document i can see the font is embedded but gives me
little information, also, the information is less then the other Adobe
Reader support fonts e.g.:
GillSans(Embedded SubSet)
Type: True Type
Encoding: Ansi
While Helvetica is better explained:
Helvetica
Type: Type 1
Encoding: Ansi
Actual Font: Helvetica
Actual Font Type: True Type
Any tips/directions or alike are welcome, Thanks in advanced!
