FontDescriptor

Overview

FontDescriptor is a class in Aspose.Pdf FOSS for Java.

Wraps a PDF /FontDescriptor dictionary (ISO 32000-1:2008, §9.8, Table 122).

Properties

Name	Type	Access	Description
`fontName`	`String`	Read	Returns the PostScript font name (/FontName).
`flags`	`int`	Read	Returns the font flags bitmask (/Flags, §9.8.2, Table 123).
`ascent`	`double`	Read	Returns the ascent (/Ascent) — maximum height above baseline.
`descent`	`double`	Read	Returns the descent (/Descent) — maximum depth below baseline (usually negative).
`capHeight`	`double`	Read	Returns the cap height (/CapHeight) — height of capital letters.
`italicAngle`	`double`	Read	Returns the italic angle (/ItalicAngle) in degrees counter-clockwise from vertical.
`stemV`	`double`	Read	Returns the dominant stem width (/StemV) for vertical stems.
`fontBBox`	`Rectangle`	Read	Returns the font bounding box (/FontBBox [llx lly urx ury]).
`missingWidth`	`double`	Read	Returns the missing width (/MissingWidth) for characters not in the font’s /Widths.
`fontFile`	`COSStream`	Read	Returns the /FontFile stream (Type 1 font program).
`fontFile2`	`COSStream`	Read	Returns the /FontFile2 stream (TrueType font program).
`fontFile3`	`COSStream`	Read	Returns the /FontFile3 stream (CFF/OpenType font program).
`fixedPitch`	`boolean`	Read	Returns true if the font is fixed-pitch (flag bit 1).
`serif`	`boolean`	Read	Returns true if the font is serif (flag bit 2).
`symbolic`	`boolean`	Read	Returns true if the font is symbolic (flag bit 3).
`italic`	`boolean`	Read	Returns true if the font is italic (flag bit 7).
`cOSDictionary`	`COSDictionary`	Read	Returns the underlying COS dictionary.
