I need help on accessing the fonts that are available in the printer's memory
but not in the windows/fonts. I am using Itext to create a pdf formatted
page and want to send embedded font information, size and layout but the
font has to be installed in the pc to do that because the while initializing
the BaseFont.CreateFont(), I need to give the absolute path of the file. Is
there a way to use arbitary font and send the font name using Itext. 

Fonts can only be installed in the printer but cannot be installed in the
PC, so I don't have any other choice apart from using the font name and just
sending it to the printer to print, but I was not able to find any way to
achieve it through Itext. 

If any of you could help me to achieve this would really appreciate. 

//MICR print
         
         BaseFont signFont =
BaseFont.createFont("securefontpath",BaseFont.CP1257,
BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);
        canvas.beginText();
        canvas.setFontAndSize(signFont, 12);
        canvas.setTextMatrix(70, 20);
        canvas.showText("1234567890");
        canvas.endText();
