StreamFontSource Class

Wordize.Fonts.StreamFontSource class. Base class for userdefined stream font source.

StreamFontSource class

Base class for user-defined stream font source.

public abstract class StreamFontSource : FontSourceBase

Properties

Name	Description
CacheKey { get; }	The key of this source in the cache.
Priority { get; }	Returns the font source priority.
Type { get; }	Returns the type of the font source.
WarningCallback { get; set; }	Called during processing of font source when an issue is detected that might result in formatting fidelity loss.

Methods

Name	Description
GetAvailableFonts()	Returns list of fonts available via this source.
abstract OpenFontDataStream()	This method should open the stream with font data on demand.

Remarks

In order to use the stream font source you should create a derived class from the StreamFontSource and provide implementation of the OpenFontDataStream method.

OpenFontDataStream method could be called several times. For the first time it will be called when Wordize scans the provided font sources to get the list of available fonts. Later it may be called if the font is used in the document to parse the font data and to embed the font data to some output formats.

StreamFontSource may be useful because it allows to load the font data only when it is required and not to store it in the memory for the FontSettings lifetime.

Examples

Demonstrates how specify stream font source.

StreamFontSourceIml streamFontSource = new StreamFontSourceIml(1, "test");
Wordize.Settings.DefaultFontSettings.SetFontsSources(new FontSourceBase[] { streamFontSource });

Implementation of StreamFontSource

private class StreamFontSourceIml : StreamFontSource
{
    public StreamFontSourceIml(int priority, string cacheKey) : base(priority, cacheKey) { }

    public override Stream OpenFontDataStream()
    {
        return File.OpenRead(MyDir + @"MyFonts\NoticiaText-Regular.ttf");
    }
}
