Hello,
thanks for your fast answer.
For me its a information like kerning inside the font file (in .afm and .otf
files ligature mappings are inside the font file ).
But you not read it in the "Type1Font.java file".
See example of .afm file here
---- cut .afm file -----------
StartCharMetrics 560
...
C 102 ; WX 314 ; N f ; B 16 0 311 739 ; L l fl ; L i fi ;
----- end .afm file ----------
Did you mean i should read/parse it twice only for my needs ?
Thanks
Markus

BaseFont has nothing to do with it. You must replace the characters in
your text for the ligatures.

Subject: [iText-questions] BaseFont and ligature
Somebody thought extending BaseFont for usage of ligature mappings,
which are contained in some font files (type1 for example or
opentype) ?
We are writing a document editor and we use iText to create pdf files
and i want to use some classes of iText to create java gui with
typesetting features. (e.g. Font infos)
Thanks for any help
Markus
