Namespace: DevExpress.Pdf
Assembly: DevExpress.Pdf.v18.2.Core.dll
Declaration
Property Value
Type | Description |
---|---|
IList<String> | A string list representing the collection of font families that are not embedded in a document. |
Remarks
Only 255 unique characters from Adobe Glyph List for each font are supported for non-embedded fonts.
Glyph shaping does not work for non-embedded fonts.
The font names can be used with postfixes in the following format: “FontName,Postfix” (e.g., “Arial,Bold”). There are three postfixes: “Bold”, “Italic”, and “BoldItalic”.
If the postfix is specified, only fonts with the corresponding style will not be embedded in a document.
The white spaces in font names are ignored.
Example
This example shows how to programmatically create a document with graphics using the PDF Document Creation API.
To generate a document using the Document Creation API:
- Create an empty document with no pages by calling one of the PdfDocumentProcessor.CreateEmptyDocument overload methods (e.g., using a file path).
- Create PDF graphics represented by an instance of the PdfGraphics class, calling the PdfDocumentProcessor.CreateGraphics method. To access PdfGraphics, you need to reference the DevExpress.Pdf.Drawing assembly.
- Draw the graphic content (e.g., an image, a string, lines, polygons) by calling the corresponding Draw method.
- Render a page with created graphics by calling the PdfDocumentProcessor.RenderNewPage method.
