Set Default Font Name in PDF
Usually, Aspose.PDF for Java API used to replace fonts with the default font in PDF documents when specific fonts were not present or installed in the device where document was being generated. Therefore, we have investigated for feasibility; if a font is used and embedded into the document, the output document should have same font – instead of being replaced by some default font. We have implemented this feature by introducing setDefaultFontName() method in PdfSaveOptions class. An example with complete code snippet is also showcased in API documentation for how to set the default font in a PDF document:
