Type3Font

Overview

Type3Font is a class in Aspose.PDF FOSS for Java. Inherits from: PdfFont.

Type 3 font (/Subtype /Type3) — ISO 32000-1:2008, §9.6.5.

This class provides 14 methods for working with Type3Font objects in Java programs. Available methods include: Type3Font, decode, fromDictionary, getBaseFont, getCharProc, getEncoding, getFontDescriptor, getFontDictionary, getFontMatrix, getFontMetrics, getFontResources, getToUnicode, and 2 additional methods. All public members are accessible to any Java application after installing the Aspose.PDF FOSS for Java package. Properties: baseFont, composite, encoding, fontDescriptor, fontDictionary, fontMatrix, and 3 more.

Properties

NameTypeAccessDescription
fontMatrixMatrixReadReturns the /FontMatrix mapping glyph space to text space (§9.6.5).
fontResourcesPdfDictionaryReadReturns the font’s own /Resources dictionary for its glyph streams,
or null — in which case the spec (§9.6.5, Note 2) says to fall back
to the resources of the content stream that painted the text.
baseFontStringReadReturns the base font name (/BaseFont).
encodingFontEncodingReadReturns the font encoding.
toUnicodeToUnicodeCMapReadReturns the ToUnicode CMap.
fontDescriptorFontDescriptorReadReturns the font descriptor.
compositebooleanReadReturns {@code true} when this is a Type0 composite font whose
content-stream encoding uses multi-byte character codes (e.g.
fontMetricsFontMetricsReadReturns the font metrics.
fontDictionaryPdfDictionaryReadReturns the underlying font dictionary.

Methods

SignatureDescription
Type3Font(fontDict: PdfDictionary, parser: PDFParser)Creates a Type3Font from a font dictionary.
getWidth(charCode: int)double
getFontMatrix()MatrixReturns the /FontMatrix mapping glyph space to text space (§9.6.5).
getCharProc(charCode: int)PdfStreamReturns the glyph-description content stream for a character code:
/Encoding(/Differences) maps the code to a glyph name, which keys
into the /CharProcs dictionary (§9.6.5).
getFontResources()PdfDictionaryReturns the font’s own /Resources dictionary for its glyph streams,
or null — in which case the spec (§9.6.5, Note 2) says to fall back
to the resources of the content stream that painted the text.
decode(charCodes: byte[])StringDecodes raw character code bytes to a Unicode string.
getBaseFont()StringReturns the base font name (/BaseFont).
getEncoding()FontEncodingReturns the font encoding.
getToUnicode()ToUnicodeCMapReturns the ToUnicode CMap.
getFontDescriptor()FontDescriptorReturns the font descriptor.
isComposite()booleanReturns {@code true} when this is a Type0 composite font whose
content-stream encoding uses multi-byte character codes (e.g.
getFontMetrics()FontMetricsReturns the font metrics.
getFontDictionary()PdfDictionaryReturns the underlying font dictionary.
fromDictionary(fontDict: PdfDictionary, parser: PDFParser)PdfFontCreates the appropriate PdfFont subclass from a font dictionary.
