IMAGEPSENCODEFONT(3) 1 IMAGEPSENCODEFONT(3)
imagepsencodefont - Change the character encoding vector of a font
SYNOPSIS
bool imagepsencodefont (resource $font_index, string $encodingfile)
DESCRIPTION
Loads a character encoding vector from a file and changes the fonts encoding vector to it. As a PostScript fonts default vector lacks most
of the character positions above 127, you'll definitely want to change this if you use a language other than English.
If you find yourself using this function all the time, a much better way to define the encoding is to set ps.default_encoding in the con-
figuration file to point to the right encoding file and all fonts you load will automatically have the right encoding.
PARAMETERS
o $font_index
- A font resource, returned by imagepsloadfont(3).
o $encodingfile
- The exact format of this file is described in T1libs documentation. T1lib comes with two ready-to-use files, IsoLatin1.enc and
IsoLatin2.enc.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
imagepsencodefont(3) example
<?php
// Load a .pfb font file
$font = imagepsloadfont('./px3l.pfb');
// Tell T1lib to use ISO Latin 1 encoding
imagepsencode($font, './IsoLatin1.enc');
// Do any operations with the font here
// Free the font from memory
imagepsfreefont($font);
?>
