Hi all, Andreas has kindly integrated my TTFSubFont class into pdfbox-1.8.0.
However, we are experiencing crashes of Minolta printers, which stumble across some subtle Problems in the extracted TTF fonts generated by this class. Most notably, the font checksum is calculated to an invalid value among other more subtle issues. With the help of Microsoft's font validator tool, I have been able to fix most of these problems in my original code: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/fontvalidator.mspx Currently, I'm awaiting the confirmation of our customer, that the fixes cure the Minolts-printer-crashing problem. Once I've received this confirmation I will work out a patch againt pdfbox trunk, which seems to be quite easy, because the code there is pretty much identical to my original code. If all goes well, I should be able to come up with a patch until Sunday, March 24th. If things turn out to be more cimplicated I will let you know. Best regards, Wolfgang
