I found this online:
http://itext-general.2136553.n4.nabble.com/PdfSmartCopy-not-reusing-a-fo
nt-resource-td2170980.html
I understand the PdfSmartCopy will not strip out embedded fonts if only
a subset of the font was used. I would like to embed the entire font in
my PDFs (it only has 10 glyths) so the when I concat them, smart copy
will only embed the font once (instead of once per concat'd pdf).
Will "_ocr.setSubset(false);" do the trick? I have a Font utility class
like so:
public class Fonts {
private static final String OCR_FONT_FILE =
"/resources/fonts/OCRAEXT.ttf";
static {
BaseFont _ocr = null;
try {
_ocr = BaseFont.createFont(OCR_FONT_FILE,
BaseFont.WINANSI,
BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
_ocr.setSubset(false);
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new RuntimeException("failed to load OCR
font from "
+ OCR_FONT_FILE);
}
OCR = new Font(_ocr, 11);
}
public static final Font OCR;
public static final Font BASE =
FontFactory.getFont(BaseFont.HELVETICA, 9);
public static final Font BOLD =
FontFactory.getFont(BaseFont.HELVETICA, 9, Font.BOLD);
private Fonts() {
// this is a utility class...do not instantiate it!
}
}
