[jira] [Created] (PDFBOX-1040) NPE in PDTrueTypeFont.loadTTF(null, nameOfFont)

NPE in PDTrueTypeFont.loadTTF(null, nameOfFont)
-----------------------------------------------

                 Key: PDFBOX-1040
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1040
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: PDModel
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
         Environment: JDK 1.6.0_025, Windows 7 64 Bit
            Reporter: MH


Calling PDTrueTypeFont.loadTTF() or new PDType1AfmPfbFont() with the first parameter (Document) set as null results in a  NullPointerException! I set document as null as I don't want the font to be embedded in the document. As I don't see any other constructor for creating fonts omitting the document, I expect to set it to null if I don't want the font to get embedded.

[jira] [Updated] (PDFBOX-1040) NPE in PDTrueTypeFont.loadTTF(null, nameOfFont)

Posted by "Andreas Lehmkühler (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1040?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Andreas Lehmkühler updated PDFBOX-1040:
---------------------------------------

      Priority: Minor  (was: Major)
    Issue Type: New Feature  (was: Bug)

PDFBox doesn't support the usage external fonts when creating a pdf as it's in most cases a bad idea not to include those fonts.

However, this isn't a bug, but a new feature request. I changed the type and the priority.
