PDF::Builder::Resource::UniFont(3pm)

NAME
PDF::Builder::Resource::UniFont - Unicode Font Support

METHODS

  new
    $font = PDF::Builder::Resource::UniFont->new($pdf, @fontspecs, %opts)

    Returns a uni-font object.

    FONTSPECS: fonts can be registered using the following hash-ref:

        {
            font   => $fontobj,     # the font to be registered
            blocks => $blockspec,   # the unicode blocks the font is being registered for
            codes  => $codespec,    # the unicode codepoints, -"-
        }

    BLOCKSPECS:

        [
             $block1, $block3,    # register font for block 1 + 3
            [$blockA, $blockZ],   # register font for blocks A .. Z
        ]

    CODESPECS:

        [
             $cp1, $cp3,          # register font for codepoint 1 + 3
            [$cpA, $cpZ],         # register font for codepoints A .. Z
        ]

    NOTE: if you want to register a font for the entire unicode space (ie. U+0000 .. U+FFFF), then simply specify a font-object without the hash-ref.
