PdfUnicodeFont class

A lightweight Type0 font that maps Unicode code points directly as glyph IDs with Identity-H encoding, without embedding any font program.

This lets non-Latin text (Arabic, CJK, etc.) appear in appearance streams authored with standard fonts. The renderer substitutes a system font for the actual glyph shapes - identical to how it handles any Type0 font without an embedded font program.

Wraps a PdfStandardFont for Latin-range metrics and uses a default width for characters outside the base-14 range.

Methods

buildResource(CosReference addObject(CosObject)) → CosDictionary

Builds the Type0 font resource, referencing the base font's name so the renderer picks the same system font family for substitution.

encodeHex(String text) → String

Encodes text as hex-encoded 2-byte Unicode code points for an Identity-H content stream, recording each character for buildResource.

measure(String text, double fontSize) → double

Width of text in points at fontSize.

override

noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic

Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.

inherited

resetUsage() → void

toString() → String

A string representation of this object.
