Welcome folks today in this blog post we will be setting the custom fonts in pdf document using jspdf library in javascript. All the full source code of the application is shown below.
Get Started
In order to get started you need to make an index.html file and copy paste the cdn of jspdf as shown below
index.html
|
1 |
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jspdf/1.5.3/jspdf.min.js"></script> |
And now we will be writing the javascript code to get all the custom fonts which are there inside the jspdf library. We can use a method called as getFontList() which will return the total number of fonts which are there inside the jspdf library.
|
1 2 3 |
var doc = new jsPDF() console.log(doc.getFontList()) |
As you can see an object is returned and it contains a number fonts and it’s sub font types such as bold and italic. Now you can use any of the fonts inside the pdf documents using the jspdf setFont() method as shown below
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 |
doc.setFont('Courier') doc.setFontType('Oblique') doc.text("hello world",10,10) doc.save("output.pdf") |
As you can see we are setting the courier font and oblique font type inside the pdf document and then saving it as output.pdf in browser.
