I would like to create a PDF in which the font 'Palatino Linotype' is used. I have the library 'jPDFjet' viewed, but this font probably not. Is there the possibility to insert this font into jPDFjet or which PDF library can I still try?

You need the commercial version of PDFJet library to embed fonts into a PDF document.

Well as a rough outline you would need to:

Buy the commercial PDFJet library (around $300 IIRC)
Buy a licence for Palatino Linotype font from Linotype.
Using the jPDFJet library you would load the font and embed it in the PDF.

If you don't embed the font then anyone who doesn't have that font loaded on their device will see it a substituted font in the PDF instead of Palatino.
