Hi,
I am trying to build pdf document from scratch instead of using XML template. I have enclosed the same program. I have set default font size and font name for the document. But when I use HtmlFragment, font size and name are not being honored. Content is displayed in times new format. How can we set font information for HtmlFragments?
Thanks
Mamatha
Hi Mamatha,
com.aspose.pdf.Document doc = new
com.aspose.pdf.Document();<o:p></o:p>
//com.aspose.pdf.Document.addLocalFontPath(EMRPropertyManager.getAsposePdfFontsFolder());
com.aspose.pdf.Font font = com.aspose.pdf.FontRepository.findFont("Palatino Linotype");
doc.getPageInfo().getDefaultTextState().setFont(font);
doc.getPageInfo().getDefaultTextState().setFontSize(10f);
Page page = doc.getPages().add();
com.aspose.pdf.HtmlFragment fragment =
new
com.aspose.pdf.HtmlFragment(" It was a pleasure to see you on

Nayyer,
Thanks for the reply. I am encountering following issues.
1. When font name is "Palatino Linotype", font is not displaying in that format. When I copied the content to word it shows as PalatinoLinotype.
2. When I added size attribute to font element, content is always displaying in 27 font size. It seems pdf is not honoring size attribute.
3. Instead of adding font in the html, can we specify in a css file? Because in our case html content comes from database and it is hard to manipulate html to stylize for pdf. In legacy api, we used to add content using Text element and setting isHtmlTagSupported=true.
Thanks

Hi Mamatha,mamatha:
1. When font name is “Palatino Linotype”, font is not displaying in that format. When I copied the content to word it shows as PalatinoLinotype.
Please share the HTML string with font size information, so that we can test the scenario in our environment.2. When I added size attribute to font element, content is always displaying in 27 font size. It seems pdf is not honoring size attribute.
When using CSS, you need to use HtmlLoadOptions object to load contents from HTML and CSS file and during rendering, the formatting is honored. Please visit the following link for further information on Convert HTML to PDF Format3. Instead of adding font in the html, can we specify in a css file?

Hi,
Here is sample html string for font size. I tried following approaches with HtmlFragment but it did not work.

This approach worked. Font size is honored when it is specified in the style attribute.

Regarding HtmlLoadOptions: Sample program is converting html file into pdf. But we don't have HTML file. I am using HtmlFragments to build pdf document. In this case how can I use HtmlLoadOptions?
Thanks
