Encoding with PdfTrueTypeFont

[bhavnahingar]

I was using iText jar class BaseFont class like BaseFont.createFont( BaseFont.COURIER, BaseFont.CP1252, BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);

Now I want to use Spire PDF class PdfTrueTypeFont(java.awt.Font) to create a font for stamping. I want to use the encoding as CP1252 and also the NOT_EMBEDDED property but not able to find out how to use it with awt Font class or PdfTrueTypeFont class. please let me know.

Hi,

Thank you for your feedback.
Our product supports adding date at the end of the page, I put the complete code below for your reference:

Code: Select all

    // Create a new PDF document
    PdfDocument doc = new PdfDocument();

    // Set the size of the pages to A4
    doc.PageSettings.Size = PdfPageSize.A4;

    // Set the margins of the pages to 0
    doc.PageSettings.Margins = new PdfMargins(0);

    // Create a new PdfMargins object with custom values for top, bottom, left, and right margins
    PdfMargins margins = new PdfMargins(40, 60, 40, 60);

    // Set the bottom template of the document to the created footer template
    doc.Template.Bottom = CreateFooterTemplate(doc, margins);

    // Set the left template of the document to a new PdfPageTemplateElement with the specified margins and page size height
    doc.Template.Left = new PdfPageTemplateElement(margins.Left, doc.PageSettings.Size.Height);

    // Set the right template of the document to a new PdfPageTemplateElement with the specified margins and page size height
    doc.Template.Right = new PdfPageTemplateElement(margins.Right, doc.PageSettings.Size.Height);

    // Add a new page to the document
    PdfPageBase page1 = doc.Pages.Add();

    // Add another new page to the document
    PdfPageBase page2 = doc.Pages.Add();

    // Create a new PdfTrueTypeFont object with the specified font name, size, and style
    PdfTrueTypeFont font = new PdfTrueTypeFont(new Font("华文楷体", 15f, FontStyle.Bold), true);
    // Save the document to a file named "HeaderAndFooter7.pdf"
    doc.SaveToFile(@"..\HeaderAndFooter7.pdf");
}
// Define a static method to create a footer template for the document
static PdfPageTemplateElement CreateFooterTemplate(PdfDocument doc, PdfMargins margins)
{
    // Get the size of the page settings
    SizeF pageSize = doc.PageSettings.Size;
   
    // Create a new PdfPageTemplateElement with the specified width and bottom margins
    PdfPageTemplateElement footerSpace = new PdfPageTemplateElement(pageSize.Width, margins.Bottom);
   
    // Set the foreground color of the footer space to false
    footerSpace.Foreground = false;
   
    // Initialize the x and y coordinates for drawing the line
    float x = margins.Left;
    float y = 0;
   
    // Create a new PdfPen with a gray brush and a thickness of 0.5
    PdfPen pen = new PdfPen(PdfBrushes.Gray, 0.5f);
 
    // Draw a line from the top-left corner to the bottom-right corner of the footer space
    footerSpace.Graphics.DrawLine(pen, x, y, pageSize.Width - x, y);
   
    // Increment the y coordinate by 5
    y = y + 5;
   
    // Create a new PdfTrueTypeFont object with the specified font name, size, and style
    PdfTrueTypeFont font = new PdfTrueTypeFont(new Font("黑体", 10f, FontStyle.Bold), true);
   
    // Create a new PdfStringFormat object with the specified text alignment
    PdfStringFormat format = new PdfStringFormat(PdfTextAlignment.Left);
   
    // Get the current date and time
    DateTime s1 = DateTime.Now;
   
    // Create a string containing the date and time information
    String footerText = "日期：" + s1;
   
    // Draw the footer text on the footer space using the specified font, brush, x and y coordinates, and format
    footerSpace.Graphics.DrawString(footerText, font, PdfBrushes.Black, x, y, format);
   
    // Return the created footer space
    return footerSpace;
}
