[jira] [Updated] (PDFBOX-3298) Can't show text (glyph) from
ZapfDingbats font
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3298?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Friediwn Fleischmn updated PDFBOX-3298:
---------------------------------------
Description:
I am unable to add glyphs from the standard *ZapfDingbats* font to a PDF document. The issue seems to be that the encoding for the font (*WinAnsiEncoding*) does not have mappings for the "non-ASCII (???)" PDF names used in the font ("aXX"). (However, the {{PDSimpleFont.glyphList}} *does* contain mappings between Unicode codepoints and PDF names.)
Sample code:
{code}
PDDocument document = PDDocument.load(new File("myfile.pdf"));
PDPage page = document.getPages().get(0); // first page
PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(document, page, AppendMode.APPEND, true);
PDType1Font font = PDType1Font.ZAPF_DINGBATS;
String glyph = "\u2714";
contentStream.beginText();
contentStream.setFont(font, fontSize);
contentStream.newLineAtOffset(10, 10); // towards lower left corner of page
contentStream.showText(glyph);
contentStream.endText();
contentStream.close();
document.save("output.pdf");
document.close();
{code}
Exception thrown:
{code}
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: U+2714 ('a20') is not available in this font's encoding: WinAnsiEncoding
at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDType1Font.encode(PDType1Font.java:345)
at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDFont.encode(PDFont.java:286)
