AddFont

AddFont(string family [, string style [, string file]])

Version

1.5

Description

Imports a TrueType or Type1 font and makes it available. It is necessary to generate a font definition file first with the makefont.php utility.
The definition file (and the font file itself when embedding) must be present either in the current directory or in the one indicated by FPDF_FONTPATH if the constant is defined. If it could not be found, the error "Could not include font definition file" is generated.

Parameters

family
Font family. The name can be chosen arbitrarily. If it is a standard family name, it will override the corresponding font.
style
Font style. Possible values are (case insensitive): The default value is regular.
file
The font definition file.
By default, the name is built from the family and style, in lower case with no space.

Example

$pdf->AddFont('Comic','I');

is equivalent to:

$pdf->AddFont('Comic','I','comici.php');
