Install Fonts

Install TrueType fonts for embedding text based stamps/watermarks.

Usage

pdfcpu fonts install fontFiles... [flags]

Supported inputs are TrueType fonts (.ttf) and TrueType collections (.ttc). Installing a collection is transactional: pdfcpu validates and stages every member before replacing installed font data. If any member fails, no member from that collection remains installed.

In order to produce stamps/watermarks using your favorite TrueType font you need to install it as a user font:

$ pdfcpu fonts install SimSun.ttf
installing to /Users/horstrutter/Library/Application Support/pdfcpu/fonts...
SimSun

TrueType collections are also supported:

$ pdfcpu fonts install Songti.ttc
installing to /Users/horstrutter/Library/Application Support/pdfcpu/fonts...
STSongti-SC-Black
STSongti-SC-Bold
STSongti-TC-Bold
STSongti-SC-Light
STSong
STSongti-TC-Light
STSongti-SC-Regular

Font directory

Fonts are installed into the user’s config directory.
