Description

I used this commandline:

java -jar batik-ttf2svg.jar c:\Windows\Fonts\msgothic.ttc -o msgothic.svg

On Windows 7 x64. That's a TrueType font that comes with Windows by default, and has a pretty large range of unicode characters.

Full error:
java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.apache.batik.svggen.font.Font.read(Font.java:179)
at org.apache.batik.svggen.font.Font.create(Font.java:197)
at org.apache.batik.svggen.font.SVGFont.main(SVGFont.java:701)
at org.apache.batik.apps.ttf2svg.Main.main(Main.java:34)
null

That's on Java 1.6. And it's always reproducible. Probably even on a default installation.
