The exception has nothing to do with FontFactory. It's being thrown in
CJKFont in this static block:
static {
try {
InputStream is = getResourceStream(RESOURCE_PATH +
"cjkfonts.properties");
cjkFonts.load(is); // problem here
is.close();
is = getResourceStream(RESOURCE_PATH +
"cjkencodings.properties");
cjkEncodings.load(is);
is.close();
}
catch (Exception e) { // should be caught here
cjkFonts = new Properties();
cjkEncodings = new Properties();
}
}
I don't know why the catch block is not working, that's a problem from your
side. You may be using an IDE that is configured to catch all the exception
while debugging.
