We are supplied a number of maps in PDF format each day, and currently use
CF11 on Windows Server to generate an image of that pdf using <cfpdf
action=“thumbnail” …>
Recently the 3rd party provider changed one or more of the fonts they use
in the PDF.
As a result the generated images now are missing the text which use those
changed fonts which are not installed on our CF11 server.
Can anyone tell me if there is a solution to this issue using Lucee ?
We have tried numerous methods with CFPDF but are still not able to
reliably generate an image when this missing font issue is encountered.
If Lucee is able to provide a solution to this problem, we would look to
migrate this process & have Lucee do the processing.
Attached is the Source PDF & the resulting generated image.
p.s., I have also asked for a solution over on the Google Coldfusion Group
How about installing that missing font?

We installed the new font the last time this happened, about six months ago.
It seems this particular provider may change fonts 1-2 times a year, so we
are really looking for a more robust solution.On Thursday, November 12, 2015 at 8:58:20 PM UTC+13, Hugo Ahlenius wrote:
