Pd4ml Pro version TTF issue

#27057

Hello ,

I created the pd4fonts.properties with the command as below

java -jar pd4ml.jar -configure.fonts /path/to/my/fonts/

When I run my Java Program deployed on tomcat I get following debug info

version: PD4ML 370 Pro (eval)

I used following code on Java Side

pd4ml.useTTF(“C:EpicFontspd4fonts.properties”, true);

Alternatively I downloaded allfont.zip file and added fonts.jar to deployment and tested and that too didn’t work.

Please advice on what can be the problem.

#29854

Please try using pd4ml.useTTF(“C:EpicFontsabc.ttf”, true); instead of pd4ml.useTTF(“C:EpicFontspd4fonts.properties”, true);

#29853

> pd4ml.useTTF(“C:EpicFontsabc.ttf”, true);
It will not work that way. It should always point to a font mapping .properties file or to a directory where pd4fonts.properties is.
