Do we have support for font-family "aktiv grotesk" in aspose cells?

Hi Team,

Currently I use “calibri” font in my reports. Is there a provision to apply the “aktiv grotesk” font family instead of “calibri” ? In the excel Font menu “aktiv grotesk” font is not available in the list. How to apply the desired font in this situation ?

Regards,
Sanjeev

@sanjeevkumarambti,

Aspose.Cells will require underlying fonts used in the workbook for rendering features (e.g Excel to PDF, Sheet to image, etc.), so make sure the required font (e.g “aktiv grotesk”) is installed and accessible to the Aspose.Cells API. Please note that Aspose.Cells for Java API scans the default directory, e.g “/usr/share/fonts” for linux, c:\Windows\Fonts for Windows and its sub directories for font files (TTF & TTC). That means, if you place all the required fonts on aforementioned location, you do not need to explicitly set the font location in your code. All you need to do is put all the required fonts there. But if you use some custom folder (where you put the required fonts), you have to explicitly set the font folder path in code at the start of your program, see the documents in the section for your reference:
Aspose.Cells Font Usage
and
Configuring fonts for rendering spreadsheets

Moreover, if the required font is not installed/available, Aspose.Cells will scan for a better alternative font (in the available (installed) fonts list) to be used for data in the output files.

Hope, this helps a bit.
