Custom font is not working with itextrenderer in java

Question

I have embedded my custom fonts in html with @font-face. This working with all browser but when I am trying to convert it to pdf through itextrender in java custom font is not working anymore its taking default fonts like Arial.

css code:

    @font-face {
        font-family: Subaru-Medium;
        src: url('fonts/Subaru-Medium.eot'); /* IE9 Compat Modes */
        src: url('fonts/Subaru-Medium.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), /* IE6-IE8 */
             url('fonts/Subaru-Medium.ttf')  format('truetype'), /* Safari, Android, iOS */
             url('fonts/Subaru-Medium.svg#svgFontName') format('svg'); /* Legacy iOS */
        }

java code:

public static void writePDF(String HTMLfileName, String PDFFileName, String WhereToSave,String fontDirectory)
    {
        try
        {
            String url = new File(HTMLfileName).toURI().toURL().toString();
            String outputFile = WhereToSave+PDFFileName;
            OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(outputFile);

            ITextRenderer renderer = new ITextRenderer();
            ITextFontResolver fontResolver=renderer.getFontResolver();
                  fontResolver.addFont("C:\\Users\\benay.debnath\\Desktop\\htmltemplate\\fonts\\Subaru-Medium.ttf", true);

                // fontResolver.addFontDirectory(fontDirectory, true);
                SharedContext scontext=renderer.getSharedContext();
                // scontext.setDPI(72);
                scontext.setDotsPerPixel(12);
                renderer.setDocument(url);
                renderer.layout();
                renderer.createPDF(os);
                os.close();
                System.out.println("status:$:true^#^message:$:PDF    Genarated^#^fileName:$:"+outputFile);
        }catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("status:$:false^#^message:$:"+e.getMessage());
        }
    }

Any one can help me to find what I am doing wrong? help much appreciated.

Answer 1

This issue has resolved, the problem was in css I mentioned font-family:"Subaru-Medium" in font file(.ttf) font name was "Subaru Medium" so it was not working. Now its working fine :)

First of all make sure that below font has been installed in your system if not then install font and add following line in your code.

public static void writePDF(String HTMLfileName, String PDFFileName, String WhereToSave,String fontDirectory)
    {
        try
        {
            String url = new File(HTMLfileName).toURI().toURL().toString();
            String outputFile = WhereToSave+PDFFileName;
            OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(outputFile);

            ITextRenderer renderer = new ITextRenderer();
    renderer.getFontResolver().addFont("C:\\Windows\\Fonts\\Calibri.ttf","UTF-8",BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);

                // fontResolver.addFontDirectory(fontDirectory, true);
                SharedContext scontext=renderer.getSharedContext();
                // scontext.setDPI(72);
                scontext.setDotsPerPixel(12);
                renderer.setDocument(url);
                renderer.layout();
                renderer.createPDF(os);
                os.close();
                System.out.println("status:$:true^#^message:$:PDF    Genarated^#^fileName:$:"+outputFile);
        }catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("status:$:false^#^message:$:"+e.getMessage());
        }

I was also facing same problem i have resolved using above solution. hope this will be useful for you :)
