Hi,

I'm using iText with the 128Barcode. It's a littlebit strange, but I get the
following Exception:

Helvetica not found as resource. (The *.afm files must exist as resources in
the package com.lowagie.text.pdf.fonts)
ExceptionConverter: com.lowagie.text.DocumentException: Helvetica not found
as resource. (The *.afm files must exist as resources in the package
com.lowagie.text.pdf.fonts)
        at com.lowagie.text.pdf.Type1Font.<init>(Unknown Source)
        at com.lowagie.text.pdf.BaseFont.createFont(Unknown Source)
        at com.lowagie.text.pdf.BaseFont.createFont(Unknown Source)
        at com.lowagie.text.pdf.Barcode128.<init>(Unknown Source)

My Code (Exception occures in first Line !):
     Barcode128 code128 = new Barcode128();
     code128.setCodeType(code128.CODE_AB_TO_C);
     code128.setCode(barStr);
     code128.setFont(null);
     Image barImagePDF = code128.createImageWithBarcode(cb, null, null);

The Application runs on an Debian Linux powered Webserver With Tomcat 4.0.x.
On my development Notebook everything is ok. But I wonder why I need a
Helvetica Font, when creating Barcodes???

The JAR ist the same as mine, other functions work fine, It's just the
Barcode! I found the following open request that has the same probs.

Any reason why this exception might be occuring:

 2860: Helvetica not found as resource. (The *.afm files must exist as
 resources

 in the package com.lowagie.text.pdf.fonts)

 2860: Exception = ExceptionConverter: com.lowagie.text.DocumentException:
 Helvetica not found as resource. (The *.afm files must exist as resources
in the
 package com.lowagie.text.pdf.fonts)

 2860: end of print method

 Thd *.afm files are included in the jar file, so why wouldn't it be able to
 find them.
