NAME
       PDF::FromHTML::Template::Container::Font - Specify the font used for TEXTBOX nodes


NODE NAME
       FONT


INHERITANCE
       PDF::FromHTML::Template::Container


ATTRIBUTES
       •   FACE - this is required. It must be a legal font face recognized by PDFLib. (q.v. for more details)

       •   H - the point size of the font.


CHILDREN
       None


AFFECTS
       The font used when rendering a TEXTBOX


DEPENDENCIES
       None


USAGE
         <font face="Times-Roman" h="8">

           ... Children will be rendered in 8-point TimesRoman font ...

         </font>

       Please note that not specifying a FONT tag will result in a PDFLib error when the first TEXTBOX attempts
       to render. Since not all PDF documents involve text, PDF::FromHTML::Template does not require a FONT tag.

       (I might require a FONT tag if a TEXTBOX tag exists, but only after the non- standard behavior of FONT is
       fixed. q.v. the NOTE below.)


NOTE
       For backwards compatibility, a stand-alone FONT tag will be treated as if it is the parent for all nodes
       until the end of the parent node. This behavior is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

         <pagedef>

           ... Children here aren't affected by the FONT tag below ...

           <font face="Times-Roman" h="8"/>

           ... Children here _ARE_ affected by the FONT tag above ...

         </pagedef>
