Not exactly. In my case, I dont know which font should be used. I am getting a
string which respresents the font name. For example I could make a big
switch/case block:
switch (fontName) {
case "HELVETICA":
PDFont font = PDType1Font.HELVETICA;
break;
…
}
Yes, you should do that.
with 14 cases, one for each available font, but I think there is a nicer way to
do this :-) In 1.8 I could simply pass the font name to PDType1Font
constructor, but in 2.0 I dont see this option.
You could also pass garbage to the PDType1Font constructor and PDFBox would
either produce broken PDFs or crash. The above method prevents this.

Just use the static variables, e.g. PDType1Font.HELVETICA. Is this what you had
in mind?

No, I like to use one of the 14 fonts defined in PDType1Font class. In version
1.8 it was possible to pass a font name to the PDType1Font constructor
(PDType1Font(String baseFont)) to create a PDType1Font object with given name.
In version 2.0 this constructor is private. In 1.8 I see also a function
getStandardFont(String name), which returns the PDType1Font object with the
passed string.
I am looking for something like this in version 2.0.

Hello,
I am trying set a base font from its name as string. In PDType1Font class,
there is a constructor for this purpose: PDType1Font(String baseFont), but only
private accessible.
I also tried with FontMappers class without success. Can anyone help me ?
Could you clarify what you mean with "set a base font from its name as string"?
Do you want to use an external font?
