It displays on version 7 and 8 but fails on 9. This is a pathological use of fonts however it is a production AFP application. Go figure! The following code is used to define each glyph: Type3Font t3f = new Type3Font(pdfWriter,chars,false); t3f.setPostscriptFontName(codedfont.getName()); . . . // for each glyph { t3g = (Type3Glyph) t3f.defineGlyph(<character code>,<character width/increment>, <char box left>,0f,<char box right>,<char box height>); com.lowagie.text.Image mask = com.lowagie.text.Image.getInstance(<mask width>,<mask height>,1,1,<mask data>); mask.makeMask(); mask.setInvertMask(true); t3g.addImage(mask, (float)iWidth, 0, 0, (float)iHeight, x , y, false); } Without seeing an actual file - it's impossible to even guess! I have been successfully using the Type 3 Font support in iText. However, I have discovered that Adobe reader 9 does not display the created PDF correctly. Reader version 7 and 8 display the file correctly There are no errors reported by the Reader. The characters are simply displayed incorrectly (garbled and shrunk). Has anybody encountered this problem. The type 3 fonts contain characters constructed form 600 pel/inch raster fonts. http://old.nabble.com/file/p26631234/test_file.AFP.pdf test_file.AFP.pdf -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Type-3-Font-problems-with-Adobe-Reader-Version-9-tp26612720p26631234.html Sent from the iText - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Join us December 9, 2009 for the Red Hat Virtual Experience, a free event focused on virtualization and cloud computing.
