Detailed Description

This abstract class provides access to font metrics information.

The class doesn't know anything about CIDs (Character IDs), it just index glyphs, or GIDs where the terminology applies

Member Function Documentation

◆ CreateToUnicodeMap()

unique_ptr< PdfCMapEncoding > PdfFontMetrics::CreateToUnicodeMap ( const PdfEncodingLimits & limitHints ) const

virtual

Create a best effort /ToUnicode map based on the character unicode maps of the font.

This is implemented just for PdfFontMetricsFreetype This map may be unreliable because of ligatures, other kind of character substitutions, or glyphs mapping to multiple unicode codepoints.

◆ GeFontFamilyNameSafe()

string_view PdfFontMetrics::GeFontFamilyNameSafe ( ) const

Get a family font name, either from /FontFamily or constructed from available /BaseFont, /FontName (eg.

"AAAAAA+Arial,Bold" becomes "Arial")

Remarks: It doesn't correspond to /BaseFont name entry in the font

◆ GetAscent()

virtual double PoDoFo::PdfFontMetrics::GetAscent ( ) const

pure virtual

Get the ascent of this font in PDF units for the current font size.

Returns: the ascender for this font

See also: GetAscent

Implemented in PoDoFo::PdfFontMetricsStandard14.

◆ GetBaseFontName()

virtual std::string_view PoDoFo::PdfFontMetrics::GetBaseFontName ( ) const

protectedpure virtual

Get a semantical base name for the font that can be used to compose the final name, eg.

from "AAAAAA+Arial,Bold" to "Arial"

Remarks: It doesn't correspond to /BaseFont name entry in the font

Implemented in PoDoFo::PdfFontMetricsStandard14.

◆ GetBoundingBox()

virtual void PoDoFo::PdfFontMetrics::GetBoundingBox ( std::vector< double > & bbox ) const

pure virtual

Create the bounding box vector in PDF units.

Parameters

bbox	write the bounding box to this vector

Implemented in PoDoFo::PdfFontMetricsStandard14.

◆ GetDescent()

virtual double PoDoFo::PdfFontMetrics::GetDescent ( ) const

pure virtual

Get the descent of this font in PDF units for the current font size.

This value is usually negative!

Returns: the descender for this font

See also: GetDescent

Implemented in PoDoFo::PdfFontMetricsStandard14.

◆ GetFontFamilyName()

Returns: a binary buffer of data containing the font data

◆ GetFontName()

virtual std::string_view PoDoFo::PdfFontMetrics::GetFontName ( ) const

pure virtual

Get the actual /FontName, eg.

"AAAAAA+Arial,Bold", if available

By default returns empty string

Returns: the postscript name of the font or empty string if no postscript name is available.

Implemented in PoDoFo::PdfFontMetricsStandard14.

◆ GetFontNameRaw()

string_view PdfFontMetrics::GetFontNameRaw ( ) const

bool PdfFontMetrics::IsPdfNonSymbolic ( ) const

Determine if the font is symbolic according to the PDF definition.

The font is symbolic if "uses the Standard Latin character set or a subset of it."

◆ IsPdfSymbolic()

bool PdfFontMetrics::IsPdfSymbolic ( ) const

Determine if the font is non symbolic according to the PDF definition.

The font is symbolic if "contains glyphs outside the Standard Latin character set"

◆ SubstituteGIDs()

void PdfFontMetrics::SubstituteGIDs	(	std::vector< unsigned > &	gids,
		std::vector< unsigned char > &	backwardMap
	)		const

virtual

Some fonts provides a glyph substitution list, eg.

for ligatures. OpenType fonts for example provides GSUB "Glyph Substitution Table"

Parameters

gids	gids to be substituted
backwardMap	list of gid counts to remap back substituted gids eg. { 32, 102, 105 } gets substituted in { 32, 174 } the backward map is { 1, 2 }

◆ TryGetGID()

virtual bool PoDoFo::PdfFontMetrics::TryGetGID	(	char32_t	codePoint,
		unsigned &	gid
	)		const

pure virtual

Try to retrieve the mapped gid from Unicode code point.

Remarks: don't use this method directly unless you know what you're doing: use PdfFont::TryGetGID instead

Implemented in PoDoFo::PdfFontMetricsStandard14.
