Class PDFFontSettings

Sets the font to use for a PDF canvas.

To render a QR bill to a PDF document, a regular and a bold font face are needed. According to the Swiss QR bill specification, only the non-serif fonts Helvetica, Arial, Liberation Sans and Frutiger are allowed.

There are two options for fonts:

• Use the standard Helvetica font. It does not need to be embedded in the PDF document as it is supported by all PDF viewers. However, it only covers the WinANSI character set. This is sufficient for the Latin 1 Subset character set but not for the Extended Latin character set.
• Use the Liberation Sans font bundled with this library. It covers a wide range of characters and is sufficient for the Extended Latin character set. A subset of characters will be embedded in the PDF document. The font has been published under SIL OPEN FONT LICENSE Version 1.1 and is free for use.
