Dear Andreas,
I saw your thread on markmail.org and I have one question to ask you
regarding PdfBox.
We are using Pdfbox.-0.7.4 for sending the PDF file to client printer
when printing from Oracle Reports 11g.
When I am adding alias mapping for barcode font C39P24DmTt =
"V100025_.TTF" I am getting the following error:
Java code
while (setInt.hasNext()) {
String val = (String)setInt.next();
write_message("Before cast");
*PDType1Font pdt = (PDType1Font)map.get(val); // error is here!!!!!*
write_message("After cast");
write_message("'"+val+"
"+pdt.getFontDescriptor().getFontName()+"'");
// write_message("Printing after cast " +
"'"+val+" "+pdt.getFontDescriptor().getFontName()+"'");
PDFont currFont =
this.loadFontByName(document,pdt.getFontDescriptor().getFontName(),val);
if(currFont != null)
{
currentPage.findResources().getFonts().put(val,currFont);
}
}
Error
DEBUG MESSAGE DirectPrint24: Map is:
{f1=org.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.pdtype0f...@91d7c,
f0=org.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.pdtype0f...@6ee404,
f2=org.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.pdtype0f...@3bfc47}
DEBUG MESSAGE DirectPrint24: org.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDType0Font cannot
be cast to org.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDType1Font
It looks like this font is not recognizable.
Any help or advice will be much appreciated.
You're obviously expecting a type1 font but your pdf contains type0 fonts.
Consequently your PDType1Font-cast has to throw an exception.
I suggest to upgrade pdfbox to the 0.8-version [1]. It includes a lot of
improvements and fixes, probably your alias mapping will not be needed anymore.
