Re: [iText-questions] Can't edit bold arial in Acrobatafter creating PDF
I have the similar problem with Acrobat. Helvetica normal is substituted by arialMT (true type) and displays polish letters properly, but Bold and Italic is substituted by ArialMT (Type 1) which does not include polish specific letters. I do not know why. Any clues?

Re: [iText-questions] Can't edit bold arial in Acrobatafter creating PDF
Sorry, I am not understanding the issue. You are saying that you have a PDF file that uses Arial-bold as font in the document. When you open that in Acrobat, and use the Text Touchup tool to edit the font, that some of the glyphs disappear. Is that correct? If so, what version of Adobe Acrobat on what OS platform?

Re: [iText-questions] Can't edit bold arial in Acrobatafter creating PDF
Hi; I understand that. The two probelems we are having are: We call FontFactory.getFont(Arial, baseFont.IDENTITY_H, true, 12.0, Font.BOLD); and the BaseFont it returns has a fontName of Arial-BoldMT. So the first question is how can we set the font to Arial rather than ArialMT and Arial,Bold rather than Arial-BoldMT? Second, when I use the text touch up tool on my system, the same system that did the above conversion to ArialMT - it tells me it cannot find ArialMT and will use Arial instead. Si it's like iText does a name mapping that Acrobat cannot do? Third, when our customer goes to use the text touchup tool, she gets a message saying Acrobat cannot find a substitute font for the bold. It does do ok for the non-bold. ??? - thanks - dave David Thielen 303-499-2544 x1185 720-352-0676 (cell) From: Leonard Rosenthol [mailto:lrose...@adobe.com] Sent: Tuesday, February 17, 2009 4:43 AM To: Post all your questions about iText here Subject: Re: [iText-questions] Can't edit bold arial in Acrobatafter creating PDF Because the font specified in the PDF is Arial-BoldMT NOT Arial Bold - two different fonts...
