Class FontFactoryImp

Namespace

iTextSharp.text

Assembly

iTextSharp.LGPLv2.Core.dll

If you are using True Type fonts, you can declare the paths of the different ttf- and ttc-files to this class first and then create fonts in your code using one of the getFont method without having to enter a path as parameter. It's a registry class and defined as a singleton to prevent misusing it.
