GetFontCount Method (GdPicturePDF)

In This Topic

Returns the number of fonts used in the currently loaded PDF document.

A font for use with a PDF consumer application is prepared in the form of a program. Such a font program is written in a special-purpose language, that is understood by a specialized font interpreter.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#
Delphi
JScript
Managed Extensions for C++
C++/CLI

'Declaration
 
Public Function GetFontCount() As Integer

public int GetFontCount()

public function GetFontCount(): Integer;

public function GetFontCount() : int;

public: int GetFontCount();

public:
int GetFontCount();

Return Value

The number of fonts used in the document. The GdPicturePDF.GetStat method can be subsequently used to determine if this method has been successful.

Remarks

This method is only allowed for use with non-encrypted documents.

It is recommend to use the GdPicturePDF.GetStat method to identify the specific reason for the method's failure, if any.

Example

How to find out the number of all fonts and their properties used in the PDF document.
