-----------------------------------
Summary: Remove usage of AWT fonts
Key: PDFBOX-2262
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2262
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: PDModel, Rendering
Affects Versions: 2.0.0
Reporter: John Hewson
We're still using AWT fonts to render the "standard 14" built-in fonts, which
causes rendering problems and encoding issues (see PDFBOX-2140). We're also
using AWT for some fallback fonts.
Removal of these AWT fonts isn't too difficult, we need to load the fonts using
the existing PDFFontManager mechanism which has recently been added. All
missing TrueType fonts loaded from disk have been using SystemFontManager for a
number of weeks now. We might want to ship some sensible default fonts with
PDFBox, such as the Liberation fonts (see PDFBOX-2169), in case PDFFontManager
can't find anything suitable, rather than falling back to the default TTF font.
