Hey,
First of all, great library! I have one problem tho, and don't really know
how to get rid of it: when I add text using a bold font to a *landscape*
page, the text is invisible in older versions of acrobat (5.x certainly has
this problem). Any suggestions on how to fix it? I am using CP1257
(lithuanian) charset, but it doesn't seem to be dependent on that. The same
thing works flawlessly with acrobat 7.x. The location of the arial font is
hardcoded in this testcase.
Attached is a simple test case to illustrate the problem I'm seeing:

import com.lowagie.text.Document;
import com.lowagie.text.PageSize;
import com.lowagie.text.Paragraph;
import com.lowagie.text.Font;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter;
import com.lowagie.text.pdf.BaseFont;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
public class PdfTest {
public static void main(String arg[]) throws Exception {
BaseFont f = BaseFont.createFont("c:/windows/fonts/arial.ttf",
BaseFont.CP1257, BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
Font font = new Font(f, 8);
Font boldFont = new Font(f, 8, Font.BOLD);
Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4.rotate());
PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new
FileOutputStream("c:/work/rcmfa/1landscapeportraitPDF.pdf"));
document.open();
document.add(new Paragraph("Simple landscape text.
ąčęėįšųū90žĄČĘĖĮŠŲŪŽ", font));
document.add(new Paragraph("Bold landscape text. ąčęėįšųū90žĄČĘĖĮŠŲŪŽ",
boldFont));
document.setPageSize(PageSize.A4);
document.newPage();
document.add(new Paragraph("Simple portrait text, ąčęėįšųū90žĄČĘĖĮŠŲŪŽ",
font));
document.add(new Paragraph("Bold portrait text, ąčęėįšųū90žĄČĘĖĮŠŲŪŽ",
boldFont));
document.close();
}
}
