Please find the font attached with this mail. I installed the font but while trying to embed it to my pdf its not working; I want to make it bold but its not working.

Code: Select all

PdfRGBColor rgb = new PdfRGBColor(184, 28, 42);
PdfSolidBrush solid = new PdfSolidBrush(rgb);
PdfTrueTypeFont trueTypeFontName = new PdfTrueTypeFont(new Font("GraphikBold", 10f, FontStyle.Bold), false);
document.Pages[0].Canvas.DrawString(name, trueTypeFontName, solid, 123, 68);


This is the code I used; no matter what I do its not printing bold.

Hello,

Thanks for your sharing.
I tested your case and did reproduce your issue. I have logged it in our bug tracking system with the ticket SPIREPDF-4126. If there is any update, we will let you know. Apologize for the inconvenience caused.

Besides, I recommend you can try the following code to embed private fonts. I have verified the font can be successfully embedded in the PDF in this way.

Code: Select all

            PdfRGBColor rgb = new PdfRGBColor(184, 28, 42);
            PdfSolidBrush solid = new PdfSolidBrush(rgb);
            String fontFileName = @"GraphikBold.otf";//This is your font file path
            PdfTrueTypeFont trueTypeFontName = new PdfTrueTypeFont(fontFileName, 10f, PdfFontStyle.Bold);
            pdf.Pages[0].Canvas.DrawString("What a nice day!", trueTypeFontName, solid, 123, 68);
