I'm using 5.3.4 version and PdfAWriter class. With HTMLworker using stylesheet (as you can see in the snippet of code I attached) I have problems only on Unix platform and this is my question: why is it working fine on Windows and not on Unix? I'm trying using XMLworker without stylesheet but I'm still getting helvetica not embedded exception. I studied a lot on iternet and on ItextInAction book but I cannot fix this very urgent issue. Il Pdf/a requires embedded fonts and helvetica cannot be embedded (I tried adding helvetica.pfb without success) how can I produce correctly a PDF/a?

Which version of iText are you using? Only the latest versions have good PDF/A support. You need the itext-xtra jar and you need the PdfAWriter class. 2. You're using HTMLWorker This class has been abandoned in favor of XML Worker: http://itextpdf.com/sandbox/xmlworker 3. I don't see you creating a FontProvider instance anywhere. Please start studying PdfAWriter and XML Worker. Then return to the mailing-list if you have further questions.
