Hello
Thank you so much for your reply. somewhat, I managed to solve the problem
I changed the part in which font is creating to this:
BaseFont baseFont =
BaseFont.createFont("c:\\WINDOWS\\fonts\\times.ttf", BaseFont.IDENTITY_H,
true);
Font font = new Font(baseFont);
and now, I can see the right characters in the pdf, but another problem has
occured
I am using both Arabic and English characters, but Arabic characters are
seperated and not connected to each others
I am not sure you know about arabic writing or not, but in Arabic,
characters stick together if they appears right after or before any other
character and there was no space between, but in my result they are
separated and it seems there is a space between them.
I saw a class namely, ArabicLigaturiser (I'm not sure in name) is this used
in such issues?
another question is that in above code, I found it from the web, the font
name is hardcoded and this is not good, our application may install in any
machine and in this condition, we have to change the path of the font based
on the path of the windows installed. and we have to compile the code for
each machine, is there any workaround?
Thank you again
