Oops! I did use the -enc ansi when attempting to build my own font
class, but I never tried actually using that font metric file. It does
reduce the time drastically, to within a couple tenths of a second of a
Base-14 font.
Since I am new to font creation, what is reason for the better
Hi Chris,
That is a good point. It does take substantially longer on the first hit.
But I have found that even the subsequent hits take much longer with a
custom font involved. Here are some average results based on a smaller
document than I discussed earlier:
Helvetica font - 1st hit =

killing performance. I have a pdf that renders in 20 seconds using the
Helvetica font but when the font is changed to a ttf file via the
userconfig.xml, the render time takes 2 minutes or more.
I have tried to create my
