I tried loading few fonts Angelina, PreludeFLF, Miama in PDFBox 1.7.0. I am 
getting Null Pointer Exception in the PDFBox, the error is given below. I used  
loadTTF method.

                String fontFile = angelina.ttf;
                PDFont pdffont = PDTrueTypeFont.loadTTF(doc,
                         
Sample.class.getClassLoader().getResource(fontFile).openStream());
