Good afternoon.

I'm currently using PDFBox to build documents for the company I'm working for, 
and I need to print strings with generic character, also non in the 
WinAnsiEncoding range (e.g. "ł").

And I shouldn't embed fonts in the PDF documents.

If I use the internal PDFBox fonts (e.g. PDType1Font.HELVETICA) apparently no 
fonts are than embedded in the document.
So I assume that the document, when displayed, refers to Fonts present in the 
PC (Arial?); nevertheless PDPageContentStream.showText() throws an 
IllegalArgumentException for such "special" characters.

Is there any way or workaround to generate a file with no embedded files and 
with "special" characters?

If not, will it be possible in one of the next PDFBox releases?

Thank you very much in advance,
Fabio Vassallo
