.SH NAME
Text::PDF::TTFont \- Inherits from Text::PDF::Dict and represents a TrueType
font within a PDF file.
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
A font consists of two primary parts in a PDF file: the header and the font
descriptor. Whilst two fonts may share font descriptors, they will have their
own header dictionaries including encoding and widhth information.
.SH "INSTANCE VARIABLES"
.IX Header "INSTANCE VARIABLES"
There are no instance variables beyond the variables which directly correspond
to entries in the appropriate PDF dictionaries.
.SH METHODS
.IX Header "METHODS"
.ie n .SS "Text::PDF::TTFont\->new($parent, $fontfname, $pdfname, %opts)"
.el .SS "Text::PDF::TTFont\->new($parent, \f(CW$fontfname\fP, \f(CW$pdfname\fP, \f(CW%opts\fP)"
.IX Subsection "Text::PDF::TTFont->new($parent, $fontfname, $pdfname, %opts)"
Creates a new font resource for the given fontfile. This includes the font
descriptor and the font stream. The \f(CW$pdfname\fR is the name by which this font
resource will be known throughtout a particular PDF file.
.PP
All font resources are full PDF objects.
.ie n .SS $t\->width($text)
.el .SS \f(CW$t\fP\->width($text)
.IX Subsection "$t->width($text)"
Measures the width of the given text according to the widths in the font
.ie n .SS "$t\->trim($text, $len)"
.el .SS "\f(CW$t\fP\->trim($text, \f(CW$len\fP)"
.IX Subsection "$t->trim($text, $len)"
Trims the given text to the given length (in per mille em) returning the trimmed
text
.ie n .SS $t\->out_text($text)
.el .SS \f(CW$t\fP\->out_text($text)
.IX Subsection "$t->out_text($text)"
Indicates to the font that the text is to be output and returns the text to be output
.ie n .SS $f\->copy
.el .SS \f(CW$f\fP\->copy
.IX Subsection "$f->copy"
Copies the font object excluding the name, widths and encoding, etc.
