NAME

       PDF::API2::Resource::Font::SynFont - Module for using synthetic Fonts.

SYNOPSIS

	   #
	   use PDF::API2;
	   #
	   $pdf = PDF::API2->new;
	   $sft = $pdf->synfont($cft);
	   #

METHODS

       $font = PDF::API2::Resource::Font::SynFont->new $pdf, $fontobj, %options
	   Returns a synfont 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.

	   -slant ... slant/expansion factor (0.1-0.9 = slant, 1.1+ = expansion).

	   -oblique ... italic angle (+/-)

	   -bold ... embolding factor (0.1+, bold=1, heavy=2, ...).

	   -space ... additional charspacing in em (0-1000).

	   -caps ... create synthetic small-caps.

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