I am trying to use OLD English font in Dompdf with Laravel.,
I have inserted the font in laravel view. But it seems when generating the pdf It is not working.I tried editing dompdf >vendor >.../dompdf_font_family_cache.dist.php File.But no luck,
Can anyone Suggest a Solution?
Thanks In Advance.
In your view/html add @font-face rules by using the storage_path method Laravel provides.
@font-face {
font-family: 'Your custom font name';
src: url({{ storage_path('fonts\your-custom-font.ttf') }}) format("truetype");
font-weight: 400; // use the matching font-weight here ( 100, 200, 300, 400, etc).
font-style: normal; // use the matching font-style here
}
Add font-family rules to your css as seen below
body {
font-family: "Your custom font name";
}
Hope this helps.
I was trying to include custom fonts too. I included the font in the view (using @font-face declaration), but when I tried to generate the pdf, it gave me an ErrorException in AdobeFontMetrics.php. I resolved by creating a fonts folder in the storage folder of your laravel project. So now I have:
> storage
> app
> fonts
> framework
> logs
I hope it will help
Set font into html page which is load in Dompdf
<html>
<head>
<style>
@font-face {
font-family: 'Helvetica';
font-weight: normal;
font-style: normal;
font-variant: normal;
src: url("font url");
}
body {
font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>hello world</p>
</body>
</html>
