Hello all,

I have a problem with the font encoding in my reports. I use the font Trebuchet MS, so the pdfFontName is trebuc.TTF. But when I export the report to PDF, an exception is raised about the font encoding:
com.lowagie.text.DocumentException: CP1252

Does this mean that I use an invalid encoding, and if so, which encoding do I have to use?

Thanks in advance,

Axel Hallez

I solved the problem.
The default pdfEncoding is set to CP1252.
However iText doesn't accept this. When the pdfEncoding is set to Cp1252 everything works.
