I'm experiencing an error when I try to register a font through pdfmetrics. Is there something I do not take into account or is it the font that could be the problem?



MY CODE



from reportlab.pdfbase import pdfmetrics
pdfmetrics.registerFont(TTFont('GothamRoundedMedium', str(app_config.TEMPLATE_FONTS_DIRECTORY) + '/GothamRoundedMedium_21022.ttf'))


ERROR TYPE:



TTFError



ERROR STRING:



TTF file "/var/www/templates/fonts/GothamRoundedBold_21016.ttf": postscript outlines are not supported



ERROR FILE



/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/reportlab/pdfbase/ttfonts.py



ERROR LINE



228





in file /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/reportlab/pdfbase/ttfonts.py on line 228 the following error is raised:



if version==0x4F54544F:
raise TTFError('%s file "%s": postscript outlines are not supported'%(self.fileKind,self.filename))
