Hi,
My requirement is to load the multiple custom fonts in run time,and for that i have written sample test program to check the behavior of custom font loading.
The comments are in correspondence with the code line as my analysis,could you confirm this and why it is behaved like that.
This sample program run with latest aspose.slides-15.5.1-jdk17 as well.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have observed the sample code shared by you. Unfortunately, I am unable to develop the understanding about issue incurring on your end. Can you please elaborate the issue or effect appearing on your end in detail so that I may understand and help you accordingly.
Moreover, after seeing the code, I like to suggest you to clear the font cache every time before loading the fonts using FontsLoader by using following statement.
//Clear Font Cachce
FontsLoader.clearCache();
Many Thanks,
Hi,
There are 2 scenarios.
***********************First one ***********
From sample code:The step 1,I’m loading 2 font folders, font1 folder has WingDing.ttf font and font3 folder is empty.
The WingDingCustomTest.pptx is file to be converted to pdf after applaying the CustomerWingDing font which is in CustomerWingDing.ttf.
After performConversion i get the pdf is without the CustomerWingDing font since we have loaded only original WingDing.ttf in folder1 and custom folder2 is empty-is expected.
The Step2,font1 folder has system font WindDing.ttf and font2 has customer font CustomerWingDing.ttf.Here again loadExternalFonts is called and again I run the performConversion on WingDingCustomTest.pptx file,now i expect the PDF should render the CustomWingDing,but this is not rendering,why?
Code snippet for first scenario.
public static void startWithOutCustomFont() {
//This has been excuted in order(without custom font,with custom font and again without custome font).
//step1:font1 has system font ex:WindDing.ttf and font3 is empty folder.
String[] customFontsDirsTemp1 = new String[] { “/tmp/font1”, “/tmp/font3” };
FontsLoader.loadExternalFonts(customFontsDirsTemp1);
final LoadOptions loadOptions = new LoadOptions(LoadFormat.Auto);
Presentation ppt1 = new Presentation(readPPT(“WingDingCustomTest.pptx”), loadOptions);
writePDF(performConversion(ppt1, loadOptions), “WithOutWingDingCustomTest1”);//it doesn’t render the customer font since font3 is an empty folder.
//Step2:font1 has system font ex:WindDing.ttf and font2 has customer font ex:CustomerWingDing.ttf
String[] customFontsDirsTemp2 = new String[] { “/tmp/font1”, “/tmp/font2” };
FontsLoader.loadExternalFonts(customFontsDirsTemp2);
Presentation ppt2 = new Presentation(readPPT(“WingDingCustomTest.pptx”), loadOptions);
writePDF(performConversion(ppt2, loadOptions), “WithWingDingCustomTest2”);//it doesn’t render the customer font, but should have rendered the Customer font.Why not rendering?.
}
First one end,Seccond start
Now running in reverse order.
From sample code:The step 1,I’m loading 2 font folders, font1 folder has WingDing.ttf font and font2 has CustomerWingDing.ttf.After performConversion i get the PDF rendered with the CustomerWingDing
font since we have loaded the CustomerWingDing.tff in folder2 which is expected and correct.
The Step2,font1 folder has system font WindDing.ttf and font3 is empty fonlder.Here again loadExternalFonts is called and again
I run the performConversion on WingDingCustomTest.pptx file,now i
expect the PDF should not render with CustomWingDing and is happening as expected,but the question here is it behaves inconsistently as in scenario 1 the second loadExternalFonts call is not working, but here by not rendering it looks the second loadExternalFonts call is working,why?
Code snippet for second scenario.
public static void startWithCustomFont() {
//This has been excuted in order(with custom font,without custom font and again with cutome font).
//Step1:font1 has system font ex:WindDing.ttf and font2 has cutomer font ex:CustomerWingDing.ttf
String[] customFontsDirsTemp1 = new String[] { “/tmp/font1”, “/tmp/font2” };
FontsLoader.loadExternalFonts(customFontsDirsTemp1);
final LoadOptions loadOptions = new LoadOptions(LoadFormat.Auto);
Presentation ppt1 = new Presentation(readPPT(“WingDingCustomTest.pptx”), loadOptions);
writePDF(performConversion(ppt1, loadOptions), “WithWingDingCustomTest1”);//it renders the customer windging.
//Step2:font1 has system font ex:WindDing.ttf and font3 folder is empty.
String[] customFontsDirsTemp2 = new String[] { “/tmp/font1”, “/tmp/font3” };
FontsLoader.loadExternalFonts(customFontsDirsTemp2);
Presentation ppt2 = new Presentation(readPPT(“WingDingCustomTest.pptx”), loadOptions);
writePDF(performConversion(ppt2, loadOptions), “WithOutWingDingCustomTest2”);//it does not render the customer winding.Since second call to loadExternalFonts has no CustomerWingDing.ttf and hence the pdf genrated is not rendered with CustomerWingDing font,why the second call to loadExternalFonts works here which is inconsistent comapre to first sceario,why?
}
The code is very explanatory ,and if you run the sample you would know the behavior.One more thing i have tested with FontsLoader.clearCache(); but there is no use.
Thanks,
Raju S
Hi Raju S,
Thank you for sharing the clarification. I have observed the two scenarios shared by you and have developed the understanding about that. I request you to please share the source presentation, used sample fonts and generated PDF files in both scenarios to reproduce the effect on my end and help you further in this regard. I will be able to proceed further on my end once the requested information will be shared.
Many Thanks,
I have attached all the sample files.you need to copy the wingding.ttf from windows and use as system folder font1.
Tested environment: java version “1.7.0_72” and OS linux6 64bit.
