Changing encoding of the default font.

[Jan Kosecki]

Hi!
I'm writing to you about the font encoding used while parsing from XHTML to PDF. Why there is no possibility to only change the encoding of the default font to UTF-8, without resolving completely new font with ITextFontResolver. iText has couple of fonts that support UTF-8 and there is no need to pass the path of the local .ttf file. 

I wouldn't talk about it however in my application, the parsing class is placed in common.jar library shared between different modules. As so, the path to the font file after deploying the application on the server, contains the path to jar: path/to/common.jar!/path/to/font.ttf and such path can not be properly resolved by the BaseFont.createFont() method. Any ideas how to bypass it or any chances to make encoding change possible?

Thanks for you hard work!
