PDF::Builder::Resource::UniFont(3)         User Contributed Perl Documentation


NAME
       PDF::Builder::Resource::UniFont - Unicode Font Support

METHODS
   new
           $font = PDF::Builder::Resource::UniFont->new($pdf, @fontspecs, %options)

           Returns a uni-font object.

           FONTSPECS: fonts can be registered using the following hash-ref:

               {
                   font   => $fontobj,     # the font to be registered
                   blocks => $blockspec,   # the unicode blocks the font is being registered for
                   codes  => $codespec,    # the unicode codepoints, -"-
               }

           BLOCKSPECS:

               [
                    $block1, $block3,    # register font for block 1 + 3
                   [$blockA, $blockZ],   # register font for blocks A .. Z
               ]

           CODESPECS:

               [
                    $cp1, $cp3,          # register font for codepoint 1 + 3
                   [$cpA, $cpZ],         # register font for codepoints A .. Z
               ]

           NOTE: if you want to register a font for the entire unicode space
           (ie. U+0000 .. U+FFFF), then simply specify a font-object without
           the hash-ref.

           Valid %options are:

             'encode' ... changes the encoding of the font from its default.
               (see "perldoc Encode" for a list of valid tags)

   isvirtual
           $flag = $font->isvirtual()
