  我们使用国语的时候，将要把加入亚洲语言的一个包，而这个包只支持到2.X，后续版本的升级中，

  这个包名变掉了，因而需要我们寻找到新的包进行添加到应用中。

 

 

 

 

com.itextpdf.text.DocumentException: Font 'STSong-Light' with 'UniGB-UCS2-H' is not recognized.

 

 

 

Hi all,  I just recently updated the iText.jar for my program from iText 2.1.7 to iText 5.0.4. There had been quite some changes and one of them is bothering me right now and I can't figure out why. I used to be able to have my program function correctly and generates a PDF file with chinese characters. Code snippit:  BaseFont bfChinese = BaseFont.createFont("STSong-Light", "UniGB-UCS2-H", BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);  Font fontChinese = new Font(bfChinese, 13, Font.NORMAL);  .  .  .  After I did the update, this line of code no longer works. It's throwing me this exception:  com.itextpdf.text.DocumentException: Font 'STSong-Light' with 'UniGB-UCS2-H' is not recognized.  I already imported iTextAsian.jar (as it worked for me before the update).  Thanks!  John

We will probably ban users with a hotmail or gmail address  in the future, so it's probably better to use you Wipro address  so that we know who we are talking to, Mr. Supreme...  Also: you should subscribe to the list.  On 12/10/2010 7:01, supremelmfz wrote:  > After I did the update, this line of code no longer works.
