UTF-8 problem (FontLib\\Table\\Type\\fftm not found)

[Tamás Bulyáki]

Hey,

I ran into this error and many others while was trying to generate pdf from a few different html inputs.

I'm on a blockly project and this is from where the html sources are coming.

I have to use UTF-8 output and when I try to use the builtin Dejavu fonts I got the errors below (with some cpdf debug message) and the pdf is not generated. I'm on windows and I have a linux server as well to test the results and got the same problem there - not counting that on linux there were more missing table type errors.

The only workaround I found yet is to force to use some already known table type by adding these to the File.php in php-font-lib/src/FontLib/TrueType:

I tried first to create manually these empty classes to avoid the error, but when I figured out all the missing classes and it worked finally on windows it turned out that on linux were more other missing classes - so I gave up and simply ignored all the unknown types.

What do I miss - I have a feeling that I'm doing something wrong - but there are simply no matches when I try to google it for this kind of error.

Thanks in advance for any input an help!

For some reason the workaround image had been trimmed out, so here it is again:

function parse() {
$this->parseTableEntries();

$this->data = array();

foreach ($this->directory as $tag => $table) {
if (empty($this->data[$tag])) {
if (!in_array($tag,array("head", "hhea", "cmap", "hmtx", "maxp", "glyf", "loca", "name", "post"))){
$tag = 'CMAP';
}
$this->readTable($tag);
}
}
}
