Hey,
Is there a way to use fonts, that are not installed on my System, but are acutally available in the Editor itself?
ZapfDingbats would be such a case.
When i try to create fonts using the CreateNewFont() and CreateNewFont2() methods of the PXC_Document class, I either get an exception or the font get substituted by some alternative.
thank you,
Kutusow

Hello Kutusow,
Sadly, there is no possibility to get that fonts via the SDK.

Alex

Re: Using Fonts that are not installed
Hey Alex,
thanks for the reply.
Are you sure there is no way to do this? I don't wnat to embed the font, i just want to indicate that it should be used. Since e.g. ZapfDingbats is a pdf standard font, the pdf readers should then be able to display it correctly.
kind regards,
Kutusow

Hello Kutusow,
I'm afraid that these fonts are not used in the CreateNewFont methods, thus you can't get them. I will ask whether we are planning to add those to the SDK.

Hello Kutusow,
The IPXC_Document::CreateNewStdFont(PXC_StdFontID nFontID, IPXC_Font** pFont) method will be added in the new release that should be held in a week or so.
Cheers,
Alex

Re: Using Fonts that are not installed
Hi, I have upgraded to the latest version of PDFXchange Editor Plus Version 8 331.0
It does not seem to have "Arial Narrow" font any more? Is there some way of installing this font yet?

Hello jonguazzo,
Is this a SDK question or an End-User Editor one?
Cheers,
Alex
