itext Fonts: iText 5 versus iText 7 HelloWorldInternational.java (iText 5)

Example

In this iText 5 example, we will create a Hello World example in different languages, using different fonts:

public void createPdf(String dest)
    throws DocumentException, IOException {
    Document document = new Document();
    PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream(dest));
    document.open();
    Font font = new Font(FontFamily.TIMES_ROMAN);
    Font font14pt = new Font(FontFamily.TIMES_ROMAN, 14);
    Font font10pt = new Font(FontFamily.TIMES_ROMAN, 10);
    BaseFont bf_russian = BaseFont.createFont(
        "resources/fonts/FreeSans.ttf",
        "CP1251",
        BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
    Font russian = new Font(bf_russian, 12);
    BaseFont bf_cjk = BaseFont.createFont(
        "resources/fonts/NotoSansCJKsc-Regular.otf",
        BaseFont.IDENTITY_H,
        BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
    Font cjk = new Font(bf_cjk, 12);
    Paragraph p = new Paragraph("Hello World! ", font);
    Chunk chunk = new Chunk("Hallo Wereld! ", font14pt);
    p.add(chunk);
    chunk = new Chunk("Bonjour le monde! ", font10pt);
    chunk.setTextRise(4);
    p.add(chunk);
    chunk = new Chunk(
        "\u0417\u0434\u0440\u0430\u0432\u0441\u0442\u0432\u0443\u043b\u0442\u0435 \u043c\u0438\u0440! ",
        russian);
    p.add(chunk);
    p.add(new Chunk("\u4f60\u597d\u4e16\u754c! ", cjk));
    p.add(new Chunk("\uc5ec\ubcf4\uc138\uc694 \uc138\uacc4!", cjk));
    document.add(p);
    document.close();
}
