GetFontFamily

Returns the font family from the current text properties. The method automatically calculates the font from the theme if the font was set via the theme.

Inherited from ApiTextPr.GetFontFamily.

Example

Find out a text font family in a PDF document.

// How to know font name of a text run in a PDF document.

// Get the text properties of the run and display its font family in a PDF document.

const doc = Api.GetDocument();
const page = doc.GetPage(0);

const fill = Api.CreateSolidFill(Api.RGB(255, 111, 61));
const stroke = Api.CreateStroke(0, Api.CreateNoFill());
const shape = Api.CreateShape("flowChartMagneticTape", 150 * 36000, 65 * 36000, fill, stroke);
shape.SetPosition(608400, 1267200);

const docContent = shape.GetContent();
let paragraph = docContent.GetElement(0);
const run = Api.CreateRun();
run.AddText("This is just a sample text. ");
run.AddText("The text properties are changed and the style is added to the paragraph. ");
run.AddLineBreak();
paragraph.AddElement(run);

const textPr = run.GetTextPr();
textPr.SetFontFamily("Arial");
page.AddObject(shape);

paragraph = Api.CreateParagraph();
const fontFamily = textPr.GetFontFamily();
paragraph.AddText("Font family: " + fontFamily);
docContent.Push(paragraph);
