# PDF::API2::Resource::Font::neTrueType(3pm)

Module for using 8bit nonembedded truetype Fonts.

## NAME

PDF::API2::Resource::Font::neTrueType - Module for using 8bit nonembedded truetype Fonts.

## SYNOPSIS

```
    #
    use PDF::API2;
    #
    $pdf = PDF::API2->new;
    $cft = $pdf->nettfont('Times-Roman.ttf', -encode => 'latin1');
    #
```

## METHODS

- $font = PDF::API2::Resource::Font::neTrueType-\>new $pdf, $fontfile, %options

  Returns a corefont object.

  Valid `%options` are:

  *-encode* ... changes the encoding of the font from its default. See *perl's Encode* for the supported values.

  *-pdfname* ... changes the reference-name of the font from its default. The reference-name is normally generated automatically and can be retrived via `$pdfname`=$font-\>name.

- $font = PDF::API2::Resource::Font::neTrueType-\>new\_api $api, $fontname, %options

  Returns a ne-truetype 8bit only object. This method is different from 'new' that it needs an PDF::API2-object rather than a PDF::API2::PDF::File-object.
