The maker of the font doesn't allow it to be embedded.

Hi
I did that but getting this exception :
AZ.ttf cannot be embedded due to licensing restrictions. -
Can you please help me why this is ocurring ?? The code i have written is
like this :
BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont("AZ.ttf", BaseFont.IDENTITY_H,
BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
The ttf file is only put in the jar and the jar is in the classpath.
Thanks
Niladri.

Move the file inside a jar and get it from there. Suppose you put it in
mypackage.fonts.arial.ttf, the way to get out is
"/mypackage/fonts/arial.ttf" as long as that jar is in the classpath.
