PDCIDFont (Apache PDFBox 2.0.29 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDCIDFont

All Implemented Interfaces:

COSObjectable, PDFontLike, PDVectorFont

Direct Known Subclasses:

PDCIDFontType0, PDCIDFontType2
```
public abstract class PDCIDFont
extends Object
implements COSObjectable, PDFontLike, PDVectorFont
```
A CIDFont. A CIDFont is a PDF object that contains information about a CIDFont program. Although its Type value is Font, a CIDFont is not actually a font.
It is not usually necessary to use this class directly, prefer PDType0Font.

```
    Description copied from interface: COSObjectable
    
    Convert this standard java object to a COS object.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getCOSObject in interface COSObjectable
    
    Returns:
    
    The cos object that matches this Java object.

    The postscript name of the font.
  - getName
```
public String getName()
```
    Description copied from interface: PDFontLike
    
    Returns the name of this font, either the PostScript "BaseName" or the Type 3 "Name".
    
    Specified by:
    
    getName in interface PDFontLike
  - getFontDescriptor
```
public PDFontDescriptor getFontDescriptor()
```
    Description copied from interface: PDFontLike
    
    Returns the font descriptor, may be null.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getFontDescriptor in interface PDFontLike
  - getParent
```
public final PDType0Font getParent()
```
    Returns the Type 0 font which is the parent of this font.
    
    Returns:
    
    parent Type 0 font
  - hasExplicitWidth
```
public boolean hasExplicitWidth(int code)
                         throws IOException
```
    Description copied from interface: PDFontLike
    
    Returns true if the Font dictionary specifies an explicit width for the given glyph. This includes Width, W but not default widths entries.
    
    Specified by:
    
    hasExplicitWidth in interface PDFontLike
    
    Parameters:
    
    code - character code
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - if the font could not be read
  - getPositionVector
```
public Vector getPositionVector(int code)
```
    Description copied from interface: PDFontLike
    
    Returns the position vector (v), in text space, for the given character. This represents the position of vertical origin relative to horizontal origin, for horizontal writing it will always be (0, 0). For vertical writing both x and y are set.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getPositionVector in interface PDFontLike
    
    Parameters:
    
    code - character code
    
    Returns:
    
    position vector
  - getVerticalDisplacementVectorY
```
public float getVerticalDisplacementVectorY(int code)
```
    Returns the y-component of the vertical displacement vector (w1).
    
    Parameters:
    
    code - character code
    
    Returns:
    
    w1y
  - getWidth
```
public float getWidth(int code)
               throws IOException
```
    Description copied from interface: PDFontLike
    
    Returns the advance width of the given character, in glyph space.
    If you want the visual bounds of the glyph then call getPath(..) on the appropriate PDFont subclass to retrieve the glyph outline as a GeneralPath instead. See the cyan rectangles in the DrawPrintTextLocations.java example to see this in action.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getWidth in interface PDFontLike
    
    Parameters:
    
    code - character code
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
  - getAverageFontWidth
```
public float getAverageFontWidth()
```
    Description copied from interface: PDFontLike
    
    This will get the average font width for all characters.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getAverageFontWidth in interface PDFontLike
    
    Returns:
    
    The width is in 1000 unit of text space, ie 333 or 777
  - getCIDSystemInfo
```
public PDCIDSystemInfo getCIDSystemInfo()
```
    Returns the CIDSystemInfo, or null if it is missing (which isn't allowed but could happen).
  - codeToCID
```
public abstract int codeToCID(int code)
```
    Returns the CID for the given character code. If not found then CID 0 is returned.
    
    Parameters:
    
    code - character code
    
    Returns:
    
    CID
  - codeToGID
```
public abstract int codeToGID(int code)
                       throws IOException
```
    Returns the GID for the given character code.
    
    Parameters:
    
    code - character code
    
    Returns:
    
    GID
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
  - encode
```
protected abstract byte[] encode(int unicode)
                          throws IOException
```
    Encodes the given Unicode code point for use in a PDF content stream. Content streams use a multi-byte encoding with 1 to 4 bytes.
    This method is called when embedding text in PDFs and when filling in fields.
    
    Parameters:
    
    unicode - Unicode code point.
    
    Returns:
    
    Array of 1 to 4 PDF content stream bytes.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException - If the text could not be encoded.
