I have been playing with Mariano Reingart's awesome port of fpdf to python in Web2py gluon/contrib (http://code.google.com/p/pyfpdf/) and found a minor bug that occurs when using addfont that causes it to look in
gluon/contrib/pyfpdf/font/ for added fonts and associated files but for fontname.z it looks in: gluon/contrib/pyfpdf/font/font If you create gluon/contrib/pyfpdf/font/font and place your fonts corresponding fontname.z file in this directory it work just fine (In fact it is kind of awesome!). I did not find the location of the bug but I created a plugin at https://code.google.com/p/uc-pyfpdf/ that can be used for testing if someone wants to check it out. To reproduce the error message test using the plugin you can install it in a new app (or use the one is comes with) and copy the font directory from the plugin to the gluon/contrib implementation and test. for example: copy appname/static/plugin_uc_pyfpdf/pyfpdf/attic/font to gluon/contrib/pyfpdf/ Run the voa_super_simple function in the plugin controller to test.
