iText, BaseFont loading from classpath

Date:Tue, 21 Oct 2008 15:17:38 +0100


I want to create a web app .war file with no outside dependencies and
therefore would like to create a BaseFont from the classpath, rather
than from a file. Is this possible?
I only see BaseFont.createFont("/filename", pointSize, style);

Thanks

The classpath is also searched. For example "/com/fonts/arial.ttf"
would get the font from the package com.fonts.
