FontSubstitutionRule

Inheritance: java.lang.Object

public abstract class FontSubstitutionRule

This is an abstract base class for the font substitution rule.

To learn more, visit the Working with Fonts documentation article.

Examples:

Shows operating system-dependent font config substitution.


 FontSettings fontSettings = new FontSettings();
 FontConfigSubstitutionRule fontConfigSubstitution = fontSettings.getSubstitutionSettings().getFontConfigSubstitution();

 // The FontConfigSubstitutionRule object works differently on Windows/non-Windows platforms.
 // On Windows, it is unavailable.
 if (SystemUtils.IS_OS_WINDOWS) {
     Assert.assertFalse(fontConfigSubstitution.getEnabled());
     Assert.assertFalse(fontConfigSubstitution.isFontConfigAvailable());
 }

 // On Linux/Mac, we will have access to it, and will be able to perform operations.
 if (SystemUtils.IS_OS_LINUX) {
     Assert.assertTrue(fontConfigSubstitution.getEnabled());
     Assert.assertTrue(fontConfigSubstitution.isFontConfigAvailable());

     fontConfigSubstitution.resetCache();
 }
 

Methods

MethodDescription
getEnabled()Specifies whether the rule is enabled or not.
setEnabled(boolean value)Specifies whether the rule is enabled or not.

getEnabled()

public boolean getEnabled()

Specifies whether the rule is enabled or not.

Examples:

Shows operating system-dependent font config substitution.


 FontSettings fontSettings = new FontSettings();
 FontConfigSubstitutionRule fontConfigSubstitution = fontSettings.getSubstitutionSettings().getFontConfigSubstitution();

 // The FontConfigSubstitutionRule object works differently on Windows/non-Windows platforms.
 // On Windows, it is unavailable.
 if (SystemUtils.IS_OS_WINDOWS) {
     Assert.assertFalse(fontConfigSubstitution.getEnabled());
     Assert.assertFalse(fontConfigSubstitution.isFontConfigAvailable());
 }

 // On Linux/Mac, we will have access to it, and will be able to perform operations.
 if (SystemUtils.IS_OS_LINUX) {
     Assert.assertTrue(fontConfigSubstitution.getEnabled());
     Assert.assertTrue(fontConfigSubstitution.isFontConfigAvailable());

     fontConfigSubstitution.resetCache();
 }
 

Shows how to access a document’s system font source and set font substitutes.


 Document doc = new Document();
 doc.setFontSettings(new FontSettings());

 // By default, a blank document always contains a system font source.
 Assert.assertEquals(1, doc.getFontSettings().getFontsSources().length);

 SystemFontSource systemFontSource = (SystemFontSource) doc.getFontSettings().getFontsSources()[0];
 Assert.assertEquals(FontSourceType.SYSTEM_FONTS, systemFontSource.getType());
 Assert.assertEquals(0, systemFontSource.getPriority());

 if (SystemUtils.IS_OS_WINDOWS) {
     final String FONTS_PATH = "C:\\WINDOWS\\Fonts";
     Assert.assertEquals(FONTS_PATH.toLowerCase(), SystemFontSource.getSystemFontFolders()[0].toLowerCase());
 }

 for (String systemFontFolder : SystemFontSource.getSystemFontFolders()) {
     System.out.println(systemFontFolder);
 }

 // Set a font that exists in the Windows Fonts directory as a substitute for one that does not.
 doc.getFontSettings().getSubstitutionSettings().getFontInfoSubstitution().setEnabled(true);
 doc.getFontSettings().getSubstitutionSettings().getTableSubstitution().addSubstitutes("Kreon-Regular", "Calibri");

 Assert.assertEquals(1, IterableUtils.size(doc.getFontSettings().getSubstitutionSettings().getTableSubstitution().getSubstitutes("Kreon-Regular")));
 Assert.assertTrue(IterableUtils.toString(doc.getFontSettings().getSubstitutionSettings().getTableSubstitution().getSubstitutes("Kreon-Regular")).contains("Calibri"));

 // Alternatively, we could add a folder font source in which the corresponding folder contains the font.
 FolderFontSource folderFontSource = new FolderFontSource(getFontsDir(), false);
 doc.getFontSettings().setFontsSources(new FontSourceBase[]{systemFontSource, folderFontSource});
 Assert.assertEquals(2, doc.getFontSettings().getFontsSources().length);

 // Resetting the font sources still leaves us with the system font source as well as our substitutes.
 doc.getFontSettings().resetFontSources();

 Assert.assertEquals(1, doc.getFontSettings().getFontsSources().length);
 Assert.assertEquals(FontSourceType.SYSTEM_FONTS, doc.getFontSettings().getFontsSources()[0].getType());
 Assert.assertEquals(1, IterableUtils.size(doc.getFontSettings().getSubstitutionSettings().getTableSubstitution().getSubstitutes("Kreon-Regular")));
 

Returns: boolean - The corresponding boolean value.

setEnabled(boolean value)

public void setEnabled(boolean value)

Specifies whether the rule is enabled or not.
