PHP Font Lib
============

[](#php-font-lib)

[![Build Status](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/b27c95f0359f40562a644bc4545c11e4aae9a120efcc1ec8f29fa0398aedba36/68747470733a2f2f7472617669732d63692e6f72672f5068656e582f7068702d666f6e742d6c69622e7376673f6272616e63683d6d6173746572)](https://travis-ci.org/PhenX/php-font-lib)

This library can be used to:

- Read TrueType, OpenType (with TrueType glyphs), WOFF font files
- Extract basic info (name, style, etc)
- Extract advanced info (horizontal metrics, glyph names, glyph shapes, etc)
- Make an Adobe Font Metrics (AFM) file from a font

You can find a demo GUI [here](http://pxd.me/php-font-lib/www/font_explorer.html).

This project was initiated by the need to read font files in the [DOMPDF project](https://github.com/dompdf/dompdf).

Usage Example
-------------

[](#usage-example)

```
$font = \FontLib\Font::load('../../fontfile.ttf');
$font->parse();  // for getFontWeight() to work this call must be done first!
echo $font->getFontName() .'';
echo $font->getFontSubfamily() .'';
echo $font->getFontSubfamilyID() .'';
echo $font->getFontFullName() .'';
echo $font->getFontVersion() .'';
echo $font->getFontWeight() .'';
echo $font->getFontPostscriptName() .'';

```
