NAME¶
PDF::API2::Resource::UniFont - UniFont support class for PDF::API2
METHODS¶
- $font = PDF::API2::Resource::UniFont->new $pdf,
@fontspecs, %options
- Returns a uni-font object.
FONTSPECS: fonts can be registered using the following hash-ref:
{
font => $fontobj, # the font to be registered
blocks => $blockspec, # the unicode blocks, the font is being registered for
codes => $codespec, # the unicode codepoints, -"-
}
BLOCKSPECS:
[
$block1, $block3, # register font for block 1 + 3
[$blockA,$blockZ], # register font for blocks A .. Z
]
CODESPECS:
[
$cp1, $cp3, # register font for codepoint 1 + 3
[$cpA,$cpZ], # register font for codepoints A .. Z
]
NOTE: if you want to register a font for the entire unicode space
(ie. U+0000 .. U+FFFF), then simply specify a font-object without the
hash-ref.
Valid %options are:
'-encode' ... changes the encoding of the font from its default.
(see "perldoc Encode" for a list of valid tags)
- $font = PDF::API2::Resource::UniFont->new_api $api,
$name, %options
- Returns a uni-font object. This method is different from
'new' that it needs an PDF::API2-object rather than a
Text::PDF::File-object.
