PDF page to image with embedded fonts
Hello!
I have found an issue converting PDF pages to an image with using embedded
font. From what I can gather this is a known issue.
I have used 1.8.3 and 1.9.0
The error in the log is:
2013-08-26 11:15:32.897 -0700 Can't read the embedded font [font name here]
2013-08-26 11:15:32.897 -0700 Using font Helvetica-Light instead of [font
name here]
I found this post describing the problem:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1436
A Tilman Hausherr wrote "...works with 2.0.0 as of yesterday."
Thats awesome but it would seem that 2.0.0 either doesn't have
convertToImage implemented
yet or it's been removed.
Are there any workarounds with either the current release or 2.0 to convert
a PDF with embedded fonts to an image?

Nope, it works.

Looks like you didn't update the whole source code/all maven dependencies of
PDFBox, did you?
It ist not sufficient to simply add the new RenderUtil class to your source.

Andreas, one more thing. It looks like RenderUtil.convertToImage is
either broken or unfinished(?)
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
org.apache.pdfbox.pdfviewer.PageDrawer.dispose()V
org.apache.pdfbox.util.RenderUtil.renderPage(RenderUtil.java:214)
org.apache.pdfbox.util.RenderUtil.convertToImage(RenderUtil.java:177)
Thanks again very much,
Sean

Ah, ok I see. That version went into the maven repos by accident. We never
intended to release such a version.
If you are using a SNAPSHOT-version you should use 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT

Thanks for the reply Andreas. To answer you question about 1.9 I should
first tell you that I'm relatively new to Java and Maven projects. I'm
using Netbeans and thought I would change the version tag and it auto
filled in 1.9.0-SNAPSHOT and it worked.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.pdfbox</groupId>
<artifactId>pdfbox</artifactId>
<version>1.9.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>

I'm just curious, where did you get 1.9.0 ? Can't be an offical release

We are refactoring some parts of PDFBox. convertToImage was moved to
org.apache.pdfbox.util.RenderUtil
