      Creates a Type 1 standard 14 font for embedding.

      Creates a new Type 1 font for embedding.
      Parameters:
      doc - PDF document to write to

  • Method Details

    • getBaseFont

      public final String getBaseFont()
      Returns the PostScript name of the font.
      Returns:
      the PostScript name of the font
    • getHeight

      public float getHeight(int code) throws IOException
      Description copied from interface: PDFontLike
      Returns the height of the given character, in glyph space. This can be expensive to calculate. Results are only approximate.

      Warning: This method is deprecated in PDFBox 2.0 because there is no meaningful value which it can return. The PDFontLike.getWidth(int) method returns the advance width of a glyph, but there is no corresponding advance height. The logical height of a character is the same for every character in a font, so if you want that, retrieve the font bbox's height. Otherwise if you want the visual bounds of the glyph then call getPath(..) on the appropriate PDFont subclass to retrieve the glyph outline as a GeneralPath. See the cyan rectangles in the DrawPrintTextLocations.java example to see this in action.

      Specified by:
      getHeight in interface PDFontLike
      Parameters:
      code - character code
      Returns:
      the height of the given character
      Throws:
      IOException - if the height could not be read

      encode in class PDFont
      Parameters:
      unicode - Unicode code point.
      Returns:
      Array of 1 to 4 PDF content stream bytes.
