Hi,
I was reading chapter 8 from the iText book, however, I still have some
doubts about using fonts.
As the book says: Standard Type 1 fonts are a set of 14 fonts that are
required to be available in all PDF consumer applications. According to the
table presented: Times-Roman is a Type 1 Font.
However, "Adobe Reader replaced the Type 1 font Times-Roman with the
TrueType font Times New Roman PS MT. The font wasnt embedded!".
My first question is, if type 1 fonts are Adobe fonts, why acrobat use a TTF
instead of a type 1 font.
For what I understood, if I want to use a Times Roman Type 1 font
(embedded), I will need to give the path to the pfb file, but where can I
find this file? If this is a Type 1 font (Adobe font), shouldn´t it came
with acrobat reader? (The only pfb files I found in the Acrobat directory
was something like this: ZY______.PFB).
Thank you.
