Method Detail

getPath

java.awt.geom.GeneralPath getPath(int code)
                           throws java.io.IOException

Returns the glyph path for the given character code.

Parameters:

code - character code in a PDF. Not to be confused with unicode.

Returns:

the glyph path for the given character code

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if the font could not be read

getNormalizedPath

java.awt.geom.GeneralPath getNormalizedPath(int code)
                                     throws java.io.IOException

Returns the normalized glyph path for the given character code in a PDF. The resulting path is normalized to the PostScript 1000 unit square, and fallback glyphs are returned where appropriate, e.g. for missing glyphs.

Parameters:

code - character code in a PDF. Not to be confused with unicode.

Returns:

the normalized glyph path for the given character code

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if the font could not be read

hasGlyph

boolean hasGlyph(int code)
          throws java.io.IOException

Returns true if this font contains a glyph for the given character code in a PDF.

Parameters:

code - character code in a PDF. Not to be confused with unicode.

Returns:

true if this font contains a glyph for the given character code

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if the font could not be read
