Greetings Nilardi,

 

I created a properties file with an entry such as:

wealthReportWeb.plugins.dir=${wealthReportWeb.webContent.dir}/WEB-INF/pl
atform/plugins

wealthReportWeb.fonts.dir=${wealthReportWeb.plugins.dir}/org.eclipse.bir
t.report.engine.fonts_2.2.1.v20070823/fonts/

 

Inside my build.xml Ant script, I then have the following:

<target name="createBirtConfigProperties">

<propertyfile
file="${wealthReportWeb.gensrc.dir}/BirtConfig.properties">

<entry key="verdana" value="${wealthReportWeb.fonts.dir}/verdana.ttf" />

</propertyfile>

</target>

 

Then inside my code I do the following:

BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont(configProps.getString("verdana"),
BaseFont.WINANSI, BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);

 

HTH!

Schalk Neethling

Subject: [iText-questions] Problem with Font creation.

 

Hi 

   I am unable to create the Font inside my servlet and my page events
class. How to get the actual path of the Font file , can somebody help
me ?

 

the code written is :

 

BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont(fontPathName, BaseFont.IDENTITY_H,

BaseFont.EMBEDDED);

 

Now this font path name must be the actual path of the file in the
system. The file is put inside webapp folder, hence inside the .war
file. This is required inside my page events class also.

 

Please help me if possible.

 

Thanks

Niladri.
