NAME

       PDF::API2::Resource::Font::CoreFont - Module for using the 14 PDF built-in Fonts.

SYNOPSIS

	   #
	   use PDF::API2;
	   #
	   $pdf = PDF::API2->new;
	   $cft = $pdf->corefont('Times-Roman');
	   #

METHODS

       $font = PDF::API2::Resource::Font::CoreFont->new $pdf, $fontname, %options
	   Returns a corefont 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::CoreFont->new_api $api, $fontname, %options
	   Returns a corefont object. This method is different from 'new' that it needs an PDF::API2-object rather than a
	   PDF::API2::PDF::File-object.

       PDF::API2::Resource::Font::CoreFont->loadallfonts()
	   "Requires in" all fonts available as corefonts.
