Hi again Tillman
Believe I sorted this by copying the AS400 fonts folder into
System.getProperty("user.home")/.fonts
If I wanted to provide an OS400 implementation of NativeFontDirFinder to
look in the right place, and modify FontFileFinder to use it, what's the
best way of doing it?
Either modify directly by creating an OS400FontDirFinder that is
assigned in FontFileFinder, or assign your own fontmapper to
FontMappers.set(). (this is somewhat complicated, so I suggest you use
the workaround you mentioned, and let us implement something for OS/400
for version 2.0.10 and higher).
If you're willing to test, I'll create an issue.

Thanks for your help

Thanks Tillman, none of those folders exist, and after a little research
it seems that there are supposed to be true-type fonts in this folder:
/QIBM/ProdData/OS400/Fonts/TTFonts/
Although we don't have any, possibly because it's an optional extra which
we haven't installed yet.
Are truetype fonts what you look for?
The os.name system property is "OS/400".
Unable to find the .pdfbox.cache file at present, not sure where it's
being written to.
Thanks again for your help, much appreciated.

Hello Matt,
Your attachments don't go through. But what I can tell you is that 1.8
had many errors in rendering, so the many differences are usually not a
bug, but an improvement.
The case you describe ("but it looks nothing like Courier") could be
because of missing fonts on your system so the "Liberation Sans" fallback
is used. Try to have Courier, Arial/Helvetica, Times, Symbol and Zapf
Dingats in your font directory.
Another possibility is that fonts are not found. Please post the
.pdfbox.cache from the user directory. Does this file have all the fonts on
your system? If not, please tell what directories to search.
To find out more, have a look at
\fontbox\src\main\java\org\apache\fontbox\util\autodetect\UnixFontDirFinder.java
and the other "finders" in the package.
It has
return new String[] { System.getProperty("user.home") +
"/.fonts", // user
"/usr/local/fonts", // local
"/usr/local/share/fonts", // local shared
"/usr/share/fonts", // system
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts" // X
};
If that one isn't enough, please tell where the fonts are, and tell also
what System.getProperty("os.name") returns.

Hello
I'm resending this from the address I'm subscribed with, so hope it
doesn't appear twice.
We use PDFBox in our software which runs on IBM system i / AS400s to
convert PDF files to TIFFs. We have many users who are on older JVMs, such
as 1.5, so have to maintain code for them as well as people on newer JVMs.
We recently swapped over to PDFBox 2.0.8 for users who are on JRE 1.6 or
above and have had complaints from customers about the fonts changing. The
issue does not occur when I test in a Windows environment but does on the
iSeries JVM.
I have attached two sample TIFF files, the first is generated with
PDFBox 1.8 and the second with PDFBox 2.0.8 (named accordingly)
I put logging output in the SetFontAndSize class and confirm that it's
using "Courier-Bold" in 2.0.8, but it looks nothing like Courier.
This is the code to create a BufferedImage from the PDF pages, which
then gets inserted into the TIFF file
PDFBox 1.8 code:
==============
int imageType = BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB;
int resolution = (int) PRINTER_RESOLUTION;
PDDocument document = PDDocument.load( pdf );
List<PDPage> pages =
(List <PDPage>) document.getDocumentCatalog().getAllPages();
int pagesSize = pages.size();
for (int i = 1 - 1; i < pagesSize; i++) {
PDPage page = pages.get(i);
BufferedImage image = page.convertToImage(imageType, resolution);
….
}
PDFBox 2.0.8 code:
================
PDDocument document = PDDocument.load( pdf );
PDPageTree pagetree = document.getDocumentCatalog().getPages();
int pagesSize = pagetree.getCount();
PDFRenderer pdfRenderer = new PDFRenderer(document);
for (int i = 1 - 1; i < pagesSize; i++) {
PDPage page = pagetree.get(i);
BufferedImage image = pdfRenderer.renderImageWithDPI(i, 200,
ImageType.RGB);
...
}
I'm hoping someone might be able to point me in the direction of what's
going wrong or perhaps give me a better idea about how PDFBox generates or
gets fonts. I realise the platform that I'm running on is rather obscure!
Many thanks in advance
