I tried the following piece of code:
    FontFactory.registerDirectory( "c:\\winnt\\fonts" );
                                
    cell = new PdfPCell( new Phrase( "\ub85c\uadf8\uc628",
                  FontFactory.getFont( "GulimChe", Font.BOLD, 14 ) ) );

    cell.setColspan( 2 );
    cell.setBorder( 0 );
    pTable.addCell( cell );

However, the text does not appear in the pdf. Is there something else that I 
need to do?

Do I need to use DefaultFontMapper instead? How do I get font object from it to 
create phrase object?
 DefaultFontMapper mapper = new DefaultFontMapper();
 mapper.insertDirectory("c:\\winnt\\fonts");
      
DefaultFontMapper.BaseFontParameters pp =       mapper.getBaseFontParameters
("GulimChe");
if (pp != null)
  pp.encoding = BaseFont.IDENTITY_H; 

Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Suprigya
