Type3Font(PdfWriter, bool)

Creates a Type3 font. This implementation assumes that the /FontMatrix is [0.001 0 0 0.001 0 0] or a 1000-unit glyph coordinate system. An example: Document document = new Document(PageSize.A4); PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("type3.pdf")); document.open(); Type3Font t3 = new Type3Font(writer, false); PdfContentByte g = t3.defineGlyph('a', 1000, 0, 0, 750, 750); g.rectangle(0, 0, 750, 750); g.fill(); g = t3.defineGlyph('b', 1000, 0, 0, 750, 750); g.moveTo(0, 0); g.lineTo(375, 750); g.lineTo(750, 0); g.fill(); Font f = new Font(t3, 12); document.add(new Paragraph("ababab", f)); document.close(); and only images as masks can be used

public Type3Font(PdfWriter writer, bool colorized)

Parameters

writer PdfWriter

the writer

colorized bool

if true the font may specify color, if false no color commands are allowed

Type3Font(PdfWriter, char[], bool)

Creates a Type3 font. and only images as masks can be used

public Type3Font(PdfWriter writer, char[] chars, bool colorized)

Parameters

writer PdfWriter

the writer

chars char[]

an array of chars corresponding to the glyphs used (not used, prisent for compability only)

colorized bool

if true the font may specify color, if false no color commands are allowed

Parameters

c char

the character to match this glyph.

wx float

the advance this character will have

llx float

the X lower left corner of the glyph bounding box. If the colorize option is

lly float

the Y lower left corner of the glyph bounding box. If the colorize option is

urx float

the X upper right corner of the glyph bounding box. If the colorize option is

ury float

Returns

PdfContentByte

a content where the glyph can be defined
