Let's start by saying that your assumption that you need an absolute path of a font file is wrong (I have no idea why you would say that).
If you want to create a PDF file with an embedded font, you don't necessarily need a path to the font, but you DO need the bytes of a font program. Do you have access to an InputStream or to the bytes of the font? If not: why would you expect to be able to embed a font? How would iText be able to embed something that isn't there? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Got visibility?
