I found a solution. If you go to processing tools > create font you see a list of fonts. Pick one of the adobe____ fonts and that should work?

Just wanted to post a comment so that others might know for future use. While poking around with this project I tried running the code and received notification from NYT that I've exceeded their queries per minute – will be throttling the requests in the code; let me know if you would like the update to the code with the throttling and I'll pass it along. Also I'm considering setting up a quick proxy for dev so I'm not always hitting their api. I can post a quick php file for that as well if anyone else is interested.

Thanks,
Heidi

Use PGraphicsPDF.listFonts() to get a list of available fonts.
processing.app.debug.RunnerException: RuntimeException: The font “Meta-Normal” cannot be used with PDF Export.

Hmm.

If you open a new sketch and just try this:

PFont myFont = createFont(\"Helvetica\", 100);

Does that work?
