NAME

PDF::API2::Resource::Font::BdFont - Module for using bitmapped Fonts.

SYNOPSIS

    #
    use PDF::API2;
    #
    $pdf = PDF::API2->new;
    $sft = $pdf->bdfont($file);
    #

METHODS

$font = PDF::API2::Resource::Font::BdFont->new $pdf, $font, %options

Returns a BmpFont object.

Valid %options are:

-encode ... changes the encoding of the font from its default. See perl's Encode for the supported values.

-pdfname ... changes the reference-name of the font from its default. The reference-name is normally generated automatically and can be retrived via $pdfname=$font->name.

$font = PDF::API2::Resource::Font::BdFont->new_api $api, %options

Returns a BdFont object. This method is different from 'new' that it needs an PDF::API2-object rather than a PDF::API2::PDF::File-object.
