Interface OutputProfiler.FontAction

All Known Implementing Classes:

OutputProfiler.AutoEmbeddingFontAction

Enclosing class:

OutputProfiler

public static interface OutputProfiler.FontAction

An action that can be set on an OutputProfiler to replace one font with another in the PDF. Typically it's used to replace unembedded fonts with embedded ones, but other possibilities exist. The position of each glyph will not be altered on the page, so the metrics for the original and replacement font should be substantially the same.

Note that the interface changed in release 2.27 to return a list of fonts rather than a single font.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
List<PDFFont>	getFont(OutputProfiler profiler, String name, boolean embedded, PDFFont font)	Returns the font(s) to use instead of the specified font, or null to make no changes

Method Detail

getFont

List<PDFFont> getFont(OutputProfiler profiler,
                      String name,
                      boolean embedded,
                      PDFFont font)

Returns the font(s) to use instead of the specified font, or null to make no changes

Parameters:

profiler - the OutputProfiler this action is being run on

name - the font name

embedded - whether the font is embedded in the PDF - typically embedded fonts should be left unchanged.

font - the font that is being replaced. Note this structure is unlikely to support the full PDFFont API, and the object cannot be reused elsewhere.

Returns:

either null to make no changes, or a list of one or more fonts that can be used to substitute.
