font problems in ezPDF

[Sonnich]

hi all!

I use ezPDF like this

$pdf = new Cezpdf('a4','po trait');

$tmp = array(
'b'=>'Courier-Bold.AFM',
'i'=>'Courier-Oblique.AFM',
'bi'=>'Courier-BoldOblique.AFM ',
'ib'=>'Courier-BoldOblique.AFM ',
'bb'=>'Times-Roman.afm' );
$pdf->setFontFamily( 'Courier.AFM',$ tmp);

$codeFont = 'fonts/Courier.AFM';
$pdf->selectFont($co deFont);

$pdf->addText(.... .

The problem is that I cannot change the font, it remains to be
Helvetica... the fonts folder is present, moving the files and checking
whether they are corrupt does not change anything.

Can anyone explain?
Or send their way of doing this?


->Secondly, where do I get a newer version of ezPDF, I have 0.9 for
now.

I've never had any trouble with changing the font. Maybe you should ask this
at the ezpdf support forums.

I found one thing... remove the .afm then it works,

$codeFont = 'fonts/Courier';
$pdf->selectFont($co deFont);

but later on, I still get an error sometimes when opening the document,
that the font cannot be found (in adobe that is), and it defaults to
Helvetica.

The forum is down - will check later on
