|
|
Sets the font used to print character strings. It is mandatory to call this method
|
|
at least once before printing text or the resulting document would not be valid.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
The font can be either a standard one or a font added via the AddFont() method. Standard fonts
|
|
use Windows encoding cp1252 (Western Europe).
|
|
<BR>
|
|
The method can be called before the first page is created and the font is retained from page
|
|
to page.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
If you just wish to change the current font size, it is simpler to call SetFontSize().
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<B>Note:</B> the font metric files must be accessible. They are searched successively in:
|
|
<UL>
|
|
<LI>The directory defined by the <TT>FPDF_FONTPATH</TT> constant (if this constant is defined)
|
|
<LI>The <TT>font</TT> directory located in the directory containing <TT>fpdf.php</TT> (if it exists)
|
|
<LI>The directories accessible through <TT>include()</TT>
|
|
</UL>
|
|
Example defining <TT>FPDF_FONTPATH</TT> (note the mandatory trailing slash):
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<TABLE WIDTH="100%" BGCOLOR="#E0E0E0"><TR><TD>
|
|
<TT>
|
|
define('FPDF_FONTPATH','/home/www/font/');<BR>
|
|
require('fpdf.php');
|
|
</TT>
|
|
</TD></TR></TABLE><BR>
|
|
If the file corresponding to the requested font is not found, the error "Could not include
|
|
font metric file" is issued.
|
|
<H4 CLASS='st'>Parameters</H4>
|
|
<TT><U>family</U></TT>
|
|
<BLOCKQUOTE>
|
|
Family font. It can be either a name defined by AddFont() or one of the standard families (case

|
|
<LI><TT>Helvetica</TT> or <TT>Arial</TT> (synonymous; sans serif)

|
|
<LI><TT>Symbol</TT> (symbolic)
|
|
<LI><TT>ZapfDingbats</TT> (symbolic)
|
|
</UL>
|

It is also possible to pass an empty string. In that case, the current family is retained.
|

</BLOCKQUOTE>
|
|
<TT><U>style</U></TT>
|
|
<BLOCKQUOTE>
