It is very easy to load some TrueType-Fonts (TTF) with Java.
1 | java.awt.Font.createFont(Font.TRUETYPE_FONT, new File("font.ttf")); |
But with some files I got the following Exception:
1 | java.awt.FontFormatException: Font name not found |
You can correct this with a font-editor to add the font names. For Linux I can advise the tool fontforge. It is very powerful also for convertions of fonts. For Debian you can simply install with the following command:
1 | apt-get install fontforge |
