Registering resource URL locations of font files within JARs ?

[Darryl Miles <darryl-mailinglists (at) netbauds.net>]

I have taken a look at the documentation for registering font file 
locations with FontFactory, but I can't see any way to introduce a 
resource URL to it.  This would allow bundling of fonts files into 
JARs.  The example cites how to bundle additional character sets and 
mappings for asian fonts.

When I use a hard path reference that works, but it doesn't allow 
bundling of fonts within a container managed application.


I'm looking for generic API usage that would effectively work like this:

String resDir = "my/package/path/name";
URL url = getClass().getClassLoader().getResource(resDir + "/" + 
"font.ttf");
FontFactory.register(url);


Thanks

Darryl
