Not using standard tools such as Word or Acrobat - no, there is not.

Subsetting fonts is a common and standard practice.

I finally understand a bit, Word 2007 embedded subsets of the fonts used.

Calibri subset (ABCDEE)
Verdana,Bold subset (ABCDEE)
Verdana subset (ABCDEE)
Verdana subset (ABCDEE)

I created a font of the basefont not containing all glyphs.

The original text has a trademark sign, I can't force to embed without subsets 
(even with pdf/a option ticked).

Is there a way to create a 'complete' font of these subfonts, reconstructing 
them?

Kind regards,

Peter

Hello,
MS-Word uses "Font Fallback" mechanism to show "missing glyphs" of your 
selected font. more info: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/goglobal/bb688134
iText/Sharp has the same capability which is defined in FontSelector class. 
Here you can define your "Font Substitution" strategy and then call 
fontSelector.Process method.

Morning all,

I have a pdf created from a Word document (template). From the pdf I
get all the document base fonts used, I choose a basefont and create a
font from this to include some extra text.
When I add the text with contentByte from the stamper and setText with
hard coded text like "Uw" the text is shown with square before the w
(like the glyph can't be drawn).

If I use BaseFont.createFont() the text is shown normally but I want
the style/ font family properties of the font used originally.

Regards,

Peter van Raamsdonk
