Gettin null pointer exception:

final InputStream resourceAsStream = this.getClass() .getClassLoader() .getResourceAsStream("proxima_nova_reg-webfont.ttf");

    ownFont = PDType0Font.load(doc, resourceAsStream);

in the above(ownFont = PDType0Font.load(doc, resourceAsStream); ) , the file is present in the location.

java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.MemoryTTFDataStream.(MemoryTTFDataStream.java:45) at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.TTFParser.parse(TTFParser.java:106) at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDType0Font.load(PDType0Font.java:78)
