Hi, I have read the 'HelloWorldUnicode.java' and realize from that that I can embed a New font for a specific field.
To clarify my question: 1. I created a PDF with a formfield. 2. I selected the font 'Comic Sans', but no initial value. 3. Saved the PDF There is no Comic Sans font resource in the PDF. 4. I open the PDF in iText. 5. I use the stamper.AcroFields.SetField(...) method to add text to my formfield. 6. I formflatten and save the PDF file. Now the PDF has 'Comic Sans' as an embedded font. My question is: Where did it find the source? What if I dont want to embed it (Can I control it)? Does it work with Type1 fonts as well? What about just using a subset? Now after understanding the 'HelloWorldUnicode.java', maybe I should read all formfields font property and embed the font like that. 1T3XT info wrote: > > Erik R wrote: >> Hi, >> >> Isn't that just when drawing text?
