[Bug 450544] [NEW] itext: *.afm files missing from com.lowagie.text.pdf.fonts

[Lars Volker]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pdftk

Running latest pdftk causes an error to happen:

pdftk Vorlage.pdf fill_form gen.fdf output filled.pdfHelvetica not found as resource. (The *.afm files must exist as resources in the package com.lowagie.text.pdf.fonts)
Unhandled Java Exception:

The fdf-file was created with generate_fdf.

I found the same bug here:

Can this issue exist in karmic as well?
