public Type3Font(PdfWriter writer,
                 char[] chars,
                 boolean colorized)
```
    Creates a Type3 font.
    
    Parameters:
    
    writer - the writer
    
    chars - an array of chars corresponding to the glyphs used (not used, present for compatibility only)
    
    colorized - if true the font may specify color, if false no color commands are allowed and only images as masks can be used
  - Type3Font
```
public Type3Font(PdfWriter writer,
                 boolean colorized)
```
    Creates a Type3 font. This implementation assumes that the /FontMatrix is [0.001 0 0 0.001 0 0] or a 1000-unit glyph coordinate system.
    An example:
```
 Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4);
 PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("type3.pdf"));
 document.open();
 Type3Font t3 = new Type3Font(writer, false);
 PdfContentByte g = t3.defineGlyph('a', 1000, 0, 0, 750, 750);
 g.rectangle(0, 0, 750, 750);
 g.fill();
 g = t3.defineGlyph('b', 1000, 0, 0, 750, 750);
 g.moveTo(0, 0);
 g.lineTo(375, 750);
 g.lineTo(750, 0);
 g.fill();
 Font f = new Font(t3, 12);
 document.add(new Paragraph("ababab", f));
 document.close();
 
```
    Parameters:
    
    writer - the writer
    
    colorized - if true the font may specify color, if false no color commands are allowed and only images as masks can be used
