Zend_Pdf将Verdana字体添加到PDF

Question

I'm creating magento extension for pdf generating. I need to use Verdana Bold,Verdana Reg... fonts to my pdf file which generated using Zend_Pdf. Anyone can explain how to use the proper path for accessing TTF type fonts.

Answer 1

for this first you should upload desired font files into a directory best place to upload a font is inside lib folder so in this demonstration I will use create directory inside lib folder called customfonts and upload my font file there

Now call it on desired php file (ex: inside Shipment.php) and use it like below

$chevinFontBold = Zend_Pdf_Font::fontWithPath(Mage::getBaseDir() . '/lib/customfonts/chevin-bold.ttf');

$page->setFont($chevinFontBold, 8);

here 8 is the font size

Answer 2

//load font from file system

    $font = Zend_Pdf_Font::fontWithPath("/path/to/myfont.ttf");

    //add $font to page

    $page->setFont($font, $fontSize);

Hope this helps
