Paulo,
Thank you for your quick response. I must admit ignorance here, but I
don't understand what itext-paulo-108 is. Is this a cvs branch tag or
something? Being new to your project, would you please provide me a short
explanation of how to obtain itext-paulo-108?
I was wondering. Is this functionality that already existed within iText?
If so, where should I have looked to know this (I hate asking a question
when I should have read something somewhere). If this is new, did you just
code it???
Again, thanks for your help.
Thanks,
Perry

possible to register
PM fonts when the . ttf file exists

(using URL)?
You can register a font from a jar, just include the full resource path.
iText will look first for a file path and if not found will try to load it
as a resource. You'll need itext-paulo-108 for it.
Best Regards,
