Aspose.Font for .NET is a flexible API to load, manage, and convert different types of fonts. Developers can use the API to read, merge, and convert TrueType (TTF), OpenType (OTF), CFF, WOFF, EOT, and Type1 fonts with ease within the .NET font manipulation solutions. Our API offers comprehensive abilities that include effortless font loading and advanced manipulation to enhance the typographic capabilities of your applications. The API simplifies the complexities of handling fonts, allowing you to focus on providing exceptional user experiences.
The .NET font manipulation API allows end users to load font files from multiple sources, read font information related to glyphs and metrics, detect Latin symbols, render text using custom interfaces and font glyphs, extract embedded licensing information, generate font subsets, and save modified font files. Our API also supports converting fonts from one type to another, including OTF to TTF, Type1 to SVG, TTF to WOFF, and many more. You can use the .NET API to merge several TrueType fonts in the .NET font management and typography applications. Aspose.Font for .NET is your one-stop shop for all font management, conversion, and manipulation needs.
Before setting up the .NET library for font manipulation, please visit the System Requirements page. This page provides information on the recommended framework, operating system, and development environment settings. Please ensure your system complies with the requirements outlined on this page to experience optimized API usage.
Please visit the downloads section to download and install the library using the MSI installer or the DLLs. You can also use the NuGet package to set up the .NET font management library. The command for the Visual Studio package manager console is shared below:
Aspose.Font for .NET includes easy-to-use features that developers can utilize in their font converter applications to convert various fonts. Our API covers many common font conversion use cases that enable developers to convert between OpenType, TrueType, Type1, CFF, WOFF, and other fonts. Similarly, the .NET font manipulation API supports detecting Latin symbols in TrueType and Type1 fonts. We will review both of these features with the help of C# code examples in this section.
You can build TTF to WOFF converter applications in C# using the .NET font management library. Please check the following example coding and information for more.
// Learn to convert TTF to WOFF fonts. // TTF file path string fontPath = @"D:\Files\font\Montserrat-Regular.ttf"; // Load the Font file FileSystemStreamSource source = new FileSystemStreamSource(fontPath); // Create font file definition FontFileDefinition fileDefinition = new FontFileDefinition(source); // Create font definition FontDefinition fontDefinition = new FontDefinition(FontType.TTF, fileDefinition); // Open font Font font = Font.Open(fontDefinition); // WOFF output path string outPath = @"D:\Files\font\TtfToWoff_out1.woff"; FileStream outStream = File.Create(outPath); // Convert TTF to WOFF font.SaveToFormat(outStream, FontSavingFormats.WOFF);
Users can check if Latin symbols are supported in a specific Type1 font with the help of our library. The following steps, information, and code example will help you learn more.
// This code example showcases detecting if a particular Type1 font supports Latin symbols or not. // Type1 font file path string fontPath = @"D:\Files\font\courier.pfb"; // Load the font file FontFileDefinition fontFileDefinition = new FontFileDefinition("pfb", new FileSystemStreamSource(fontPath)); // Font definition object FontDefinition fd = new FontDefinition(FontType.Type1, fontFileDefinition); // Open the font Type1Font font = (Type1Font)Font.Open(fd); var latinText = true; // Check for the support of latin symbols for (uint code = 65; code < 123; code++) { GlyphId gid = font.Encoding.DecodeToGid(code); if (gid == null || gid == GlyphUInt32Id.NotDefId) { latinText = false; } } if (latinText) { Console.WriteLine("Font {0} supports latin symbols.", font.FontName); } else { Console.WriteLine("Latin symbols are not supported by font {0}.", font.FontName); }
