Hi, One trick for embedding missing fonts would be to create a new PDFont using a method such as PDTrueTypeFont.load and then copying over any COS entries which are missing in the embedded font. You’ll need to repeat this for each font subtype.
But be warned that being PDF/A compliant involves a lot more than just embedding fonts, in general there’s not much chance that you’re going to be able to write the code to handle this - it would be a major contribution to PDFBox if you did! — John > On 8 Dec 2015, at 08:59, Christian Schmitt <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hello, i wanted to ask if there is a way with PDFBox to embed fonts without > providing text. > > Currently the most example’s are really simple, however they require me to > add a text to the pdf. > But currently I want to open a existing PDF and Check all the font’s if they > are embedded.
