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 =

I did try that by using the -enc ansi parameter on the TTFReader program. The results I noted earlier reflect that font metric generation. Thanks, Scott J.Pietschmann

During performance tuning, I came across the issue of non Base-14 fonts 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
