Remarks

The descriptor itself does not load any font data. Loading happens at the moment the descriptor is converted to a PdfFont; the resolved font is always subset-embedded into the output document.

Example

Copy

PdfSystemFont descriptor = new PdfSystemFont("Arial", 12f, PdfFontStyle.Bold);
PdfDocument document = new PdfDocument();
document.Fonts.Add(descriptor);

Dim descriptor As New PdfSystemFont("Arial", 12.0F, PdfFontStyle.Bold)
Dim document As New PdfDocument()
document.Fonts.Add(descriptor)
