RE: [iText-questions] BaseFont getWidths()

BaseFont testfont = BaseFont.createFont("d:\\lte50102.ttf", BaseFont.WINANSI, BaseFont.EMBEDDED, false, null, null);   Paulo From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thorben Rehburg Sent: Thursday, May 18, 2006 12:08 PM To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [iText-questions] BaseFont getWidths() Hello, I will use com.lowagie.text.pdf.BaseFont "getWidths()" and have a problem with Fonts! FontFactory.registerDirectory("d:/");Font font = FontFactory.getFont("LETTERGOTHIC LT", BaseFont.WINANSI, BaseFont.EMBEDDED); font= Font  (id=44)       baseFont= TrueTypeFont  (id=26)             …             embedded= true             encoding= "Cp1252"             …             fileName= "d:\lte50102.ttf"             fontName= "LetterGothicLT"             …             forceWidthsOutput= false       ... You see it’s ok but the Font is cached and this is not what I want. Therefore I use the BaseFont. To produce the BaseFont I have this problem. For example: BaseFont testfont = BaseFont.createFont("LETTERGOTHIC LT", BaseFont.WINANSI, BaseFont.EMBEDDED, false, null, null); com.lowagie.text.DocumentException: Font 'LETTERGOTHIC LT' with 'Cp1252' is not recognized. I think, I need the “cached” flag, because I use “getWidths()” from BaseFont, therefore I need a new Font. I can copy and so on Font com.lowagie.text.FontFactoryImp.getFont(String fontname, String encoding, boolean embedded, float size, int style, Color color), but this is not my goal. Is it possible to extend the FontFactory with a “cached” flag or is there another possibility? Thanks in advance Thorben Aviso Legal: Esta mensagem é destinada exclusivamente ao destinatário.
