Paulo
I dont understand this requirement . User provides me a pre-designed PDF
that supports Unicode. My service fill in some information and returns it to
the user. How can I know which font to substitute with.
Second I tried to substituted font (with different encodings) and was not
able to get the results. Here is my code:
BaseFont bf= BaseFont.createFont("c:/windows/fonts/COUR.ttf", "utf-8",
BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
formFields.addSubstitutionFont(bf);
Any suggestion?
