Hi,

i tried this : 

      PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContent();
      cb.beginText();
      BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont(BaseFont.HELVETICA, BaseFont.CP1252,
BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);
      cb.setFontAndSize(bf, 12);
      cb.setTextMatrix(10, 400);
      cb.showText("Text at position 100,400.");
      cb.endText();

i get the following error:

java.lang.NullPointerException
        at com.lowagie.text.pdf.FontDetails.<init>(Unknown Source)
        at com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter.addSimple(Unknown Source)
        at com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter.add(Unknown Source)
        at com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfContentByte.setFontAndSize(Unknown
Source)
... and so on.

what do i have to do, to have the correct font at this point ?

greetings anja

Mit freundlichen Gr��en | Kind regards
