      Description

      Code tried using Ice-pdf "Open Source" :

      Approach:1 Packaging fonts using JAR

       FontManager fontManager = FontManager.getInstance();
      String jarFontPath = "d:/font-jar/icepdf-fonts.jar";
      String jarFontPackage = "fonts";
      // find the font names that are in the jar
      List<String> fontNames = readJarFontNames(fontManager, jarFontPath);
      fontManager.readFontPackage(jarFontPackage, fontNames);

      Approach: 2 load font resources from a specific package

      fontManager.readFontPackage("fonts", Arrays.asList(
      new String[]{"Gopika.pfb",
      "GopikaLightItalic.pfb",
      "GopikaTwo.pfb",
      "GopikaTwoBold.pfb","GopikaTwoBoldItalic.pfb","GopikaTwoItalic.pfb","TitleLightTwo.pfb","TitleLightTwoItalic.pfb","TitleTwo.pfb","TitleTwoItalic.pfb","gopb_.pfb","gopbi_.pfb","gopi_.pfb","gopl_.pfb"}));

      Both the approaches not working to render fonts for particular pdf.
      Code executes properly please find below mention logs.

      n both case code is running properly and the received LOGS are:-

      Can it be a bug in Open source ?

        The Open source variant doesn't use the FontManger the same way the PRO version does. The OS version can only read TrueType and some Type1 fonts via the AWT font class.

        If you post a sample file we might be able to address the underlying rendering issue.
