Find font referenced in pdf

["Anagnostou, Fotini" <f....@i-docs.com>]

Hello all!

We are using Apache FOP 1.0 to produce pdf files.

>From time to time the customer complains that they cannot print them.
In order to find out why this happens we send them to the printing company to investigate the issue.

The answer was that they noticed a font reference to /F1 in the content stream.

Here is a part of the content stream:

/F1 0 Tf

We do not understand how this font is referenced.
We cannot find this font listed anywhere and the file is binary encoded so we cannot find it there either..

Is there a way to find which pdf files have a reference to this font so that we have a way to reproduce it?
Do you know any tool that shows the fonts that are referenced in a pdf?

/F1 is the internal Font reference created by FOP. You won't find that 
in any external files, e.g. fop.xconf.

Use a PDF Disassembler tool to analyze the PDF structure. In the past I 
have used the PDFDebugger class that comes with PDF Box to view the 
contents of the PDF. From there you will be able to find out the real 
font name for F1.

Thanks,
