How could you reuse a subset font, if the font doesn't have the glyphs you 
need??!

I hoped the FontSelector what Vahid also suggested would do the trick by adding 
all the subsetted fonts but alas.

It would be nice to reuse (subsetted) fonts but it starts with the program that 
embeds the fonts.

Oki I understand, have a nice evening,

Peter

Not using standard tools such as Word or Acrobat - no, there is not.

Subsetting fonts is a common and standard practice.

I finally understand a bit, Word 2007 embedded subsets of the fonts used.

Calibri subset (ABCDEE)
Verdana,Bold subset (ABCDEE)
Verdana subset (ABCDEE)
Verdana subset (ABCDEE)

I created a font of the basefont not containing all glyphs.

The original text has a trademark sign, I can't force to embed without subsets 
(even with pdf/a option ticked).

Is there a way to create a 'complete' font of these subfonts, reconstructing 
them?

Kind regards,

Peter

Hello,
MS-Word uses "Font Fallback" mechanism to show "missing glyphs" of your 
selected font. more info: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/goglobal/bb688134
iText/Sharp has the same capability which is defined in FontSelector class. 
Here you can define your "Font Substitution" strategy and then call 
fontSelector.Process method.

Morning all,

I have a pdf created from a Word document (template). From the pdf I
get all the document base fonts used, I choose a basefont and create a
font from this to include some extra text.
When I add the text with contentByte from the stamper and setText with
hard coded text like "Uw" the text is shown with square before the w
(like the glyph can't be drawn).

If I use BaseFont.createFont() the text is shown normally but I want
the style/ font family properties of the font used originally.

Regards,

Peter van Raamsdonk
