Can't load arial font #277

i'm trying to load arial font (.ttf) but when i load it all text dissapears. This is how i'm loading fonts var arial = fs.readFileSync(__dirname + '/assets/fonts/arial.ttf'); var fontArial = new pdf.Font(arial);

Now this is the pdf with arial output.pdf

and this is the pdf with helvetica (default library font) output.pdf

Any help will be appreciated

pdfjs uses opentype.js under the hood, can you try uploading your font on this site and check whether it is correctly showing glyphs? https://opentype.js.org/glyph-inspector.html
