----------------------------------------
Hi
thank you for your reply.
Here is another way to get the exception without using getStringWidth(). I just
need to be able to print some symbols on the pdf using this font
PDType1Font.ZAPF_DINGBATS
would you please provide a very small example on how to, for example, print the
"Black florette U+273F" ?
PDPageContentStream contStream = null;
try{
contStream = new PDPageContentStream(pdDoc, page,
PDPageContentStream.AppendMode.APPEND, true);
contStream.saveGraphicsState();
PDFont pdFont = PDType1Font.ZAPF_DINGBATS;
contStream.setFont(pdFont,50);
contStream.beginText();
contStream.showText("ABCDEF");
contStream.endText();
contStream.restoreGraphicsState();
}finally{
if (null != contStream)
contStream.close();
}
Thanks
Said
