I am having a similar issue to the one that appears to be addressed with jira PDFBOX-516.
The message being logged from a call to print the PDDocument is as follows: 2011-01-21 12:48:36,580 WARN org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDSimpleFont - Changing font on <w> from <Arial> to the default font 2011-01-21 12:48:36,995 WARN org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDSimpleFont - Changing font on <N> from <Arial Bold> to the default font The fonts are embedded in the pdf. Running the pdffonts command gives the following: name type emb sub uni object ID ------------------------------------ ----------------- --- --- --- --------- BAAAAA+ArialMT TrueType yes yes yes 24 0 CAAAAA+Arial-BoldMT TrueType yes yes yes 29 0 DAAAAA+TimesNewRomanPSMT TrueType yes yes yes 19 0 Helvetica Type 1 no no no 8 0 Helvetica-Bold Type 1 no no no 5 0 Perhaps the code isn't looking for ArialMT? Is there a way to change this behavior without having to load the ttf files? Thanks, ~Thomas
