Here is the Stack trace. I have have tried with absolute paths too, but it did not work either.

Subject:	[iText-questions] NullPointerException with FontFactory

Hello,
Iget a NullPointerException  when i try to register � new font wit
FontFactory
code:
FontFactory.register("../fonts/edmunds.ttf");

	And the stack trace is?

The font is in that location, I am absolutely sure :)

	No you are not, not with relative paths.

What I am trying to achieve, is to write a specific piece of text, with
a certain font, at a fixed place on the page.
code:
Font font = FontFactory.getFont("Edmunds", BaseFont.WINANSI, 12);
this.writeHandle.beginText();
this.writeHandle.setFontAndSize(font.getBaseFont(), fontSize);
this.writeHandle.showTextAligned(align, text, millimetersToPoints(x),
millimetersToPoints(y), 0);
this.writeHandle.endText();

This works.. kind of. The pdf gets written, but the fonts look nothing
like they are supposed to (It's basically Helvetica squeezed together)

	If the font is not found then Helvetica is returned. If it's
squeezed together that's because you have some transformation before.

	Best Regards,
	Paulo Soares

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
