NAME

       PDF::API2::Resource::Font::CoreFont - Module for using the 14 PDF built-in Fonts.

SYNOPSIS

           #
           use PDF::API2;
           #
           $pdf = PDF::API2->new;
           $cft = $pdf->corefont('Times-Roman');
           #

METHODS

       $font = PDF::API2::Resource::Font::CoreFont->new $pdf, $fontname, %options
           Returns a corefont 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.

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

       PDF::API2::Resource::Font::CoreFont->loadallfonts()
           "Requires in" all fonts available as corefonts.
