Description

Abstract class which manages PDF fonts.

Defines the public interface and creates shared storage for concrete subclasses which are responsible for generating the font's information dictionaries, mapping characters to glyphs, and providing both overall font and glyph-specific metric data.

Font objects should be normally be obtained from the factory methods {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::fontWithName} and {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::fontWithPath}.

Object constructor.

final
false
static
false

__toString

__toString( ) : string

Returns the full name of the font in the encoding method of the current locale. Transliterates any characters that cannot be naturally represented in that character set.

Output
string
Details

public
final
false
static
false

decodeString

decodeString( string $string, string $charEncoding ) : string

Convert string from the font encoding.

The method is used to convert strings retrieved from existing content streams

Arguments
$string
string
$charEncoding
string
Character encoding of resulting text.
Output
string
Details
visibility
public
final
false
static
false

encodeString

encodeString( string $string, string $charEncoding ) : string

Convert string to the font encoding.

The method is used to prepare string for text drawing operators

Arguments
$string
string
$charEncoding
string
Character encoding of source text.
Output
string
Details
visibility
public
final
false
static
false

getAscent

getAscent( ) : integer

Returns the typographic ascent in font glyph units.

The typographic ascent is the distance from the font's baseline to the top of the text frame. It is frequently used to locate the initial baseline for a paragraph of text inside a given rectangle.

Output
integer
Details
visibility
public
final
false
static
false

getCoveredPercentage

getCoveredPercentage( string $string, string $charEncoding ) : float

Returns a number between 0 and 1 inclusive that indicates the percentage of characters in the string which are covered by glyphs in this font.

Since no one font will contain glyphs for the entire Unicode character range, this method can be used to help locate a suitable font when the actual contents of the string are not known.

Note that some fonts lie about the characters they support. Additionally, fonts don't usually contain glyphs for control characters such as tabs and line breaks, so it is rare that you will get back a full 1.0 score. The resulting value should be considered informational only.

Arguments
$string
string
$charEncoding
string
(optional) Character encoding of source text. If omitted, uses 'current locale'.
Output
float
Details
visibility
public
final
false
static
false

getDescent

getDescent( ) : integer

Returns the typographic descent in font glyph units.

The typographic descent is the distance below the font's baseline to the bottom of the text frame. It is always negative.

Output
integer
Details
visibility
public
final
false
static
false

getFontName

getFontName( integer $nameType, mixed $language, string $characterSet = null ) : string

Returns the specified descriptive name for the font.

The font name type is usually one of the following:

  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_FULL}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_FAMILY}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_PREFERRED_FAMILY}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_STYLE}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_PREFERRED_STYLE}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_DESCRIPTION}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_SAMPLE_TEXT}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_ID}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_VERSION}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_POSTSCRIPT}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_CID_NAME}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_DESIGNER}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_DESIGNER_URL}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_MANUFACTURER}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_VENDOR_URL}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_COPYRIGHT}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_TRADEMARK}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_LICENSE}
  • {@link Zend_Pdf_Font::NAME_LICENSE_URL}

Note that not all names are available for all fonts. In addition, some fonts may contain additional names, whose indicies are in the range 256 to 32767 inclusive, which are used for certain font layout features.

If the preferred language translation is not available, uses the first available translation for the name, which is usually English.

If the requested name does not exist, returns null.

All names are stored internally as Unicode strings, using UTF-16BE encoding. You may optionally supply a different resulting character set.

Arguments
$nameType
integer
Type of name requested.
$language
mixed
Preferred language (string) or array of languages in preferred order. Use the ISO 639 standard 2-letter language codes.
$characterSet
string
(optional) Desired resulting character set. You may use any character set supported by {@link iconv()};
Output
string

getFontNames

getFontNames( ) : array

Returns whole set of font names.

Output
array
Details

getFontType

getFontType( ) : integer

Returns the type of font.

Output

Details
visibility
public
final
false
static
false

getLineGap

getLineGap( ) : integer

Returns the typographic line gap in font glyph units.

The typographic line gap is the distance between the bottom of the text frame of one line to the top of the text frame of the next. It is typically combined with the typographical ascent and descent to determine the font's total line height (or leading).

Output
integer
Details
visibility
public
final
false
static
false

getLineHeight

getLineHeight( ) : integer

Returns the suggested line height (or leading) in font glyph units.

This value is determined by adding together the values of the typographic ascent, descent, and line gap. This value yields the suggested line spacing as determined by the font developer.

It should be noted that this is only a guideline; layout engines will frequently modify this value to achieve special effects such as double- spacing.

Output
integer
Details
visibility
public
final
false
static

widthsForGlyphs

widthsForGlyphs( array $glyphNumbers ) : array

Returns the widths of the glyphs.
