Inheritance: System.Object PdfToSvg.Font PdfToSvg.LocalFont

Remarks

Objects of this type can be returned from a FontResolver to indicate how text will be rendered in the generated SVG.

Text representation

PDF documents store text encoded as character codes, and provide mappings from character codes to font glyphs and Unicode characters. Some documents map multiple character codes to the same Unicode character, giving PdfToSvg.NET a choice. Exporting both character codes as the same Unicode character results in good text representation but potentially visually inaccurate SVG’s. Remapping one of the character codes to another Unicode character ensures visually accurate SVG’s at the cost of inaccurate text representation if text is exported from the SVG.

When exporting text using a LocalFont, the library will use the Unicode mapping specified by the document, providing more accurate text representation.
