I am attempting to add text to an already existing document using the PdfContentByte object. The reason for a choice of PdfContentByte was to allow for easy positioning, rotation, and alignment of the text. I am, however, having some problems with font styles (bold, italic, etc.) applying within this object.
The way that I have chosen to set the font is to generate a Font object, set the font family and style, and use the BaseFont object accessible from therein to setup the PdfContentByte. The problem I am having is that when I get the BaseFont object, the font styles are lost, and the BaseFont object does not support any method of setting bold/italic/etc attributes. Is there a way to accomplish this, other than a workaround using svg to render the text properly?
