<code class="function">SetFontTTF</code> selects a TrueType font and size to use for one

This function supplements <a class="xref" href="SetFont.html" title="SetFont"><span class="refentrytitle">SetFont</span></a>, which selects a GD or TTF

font depending on the currently selected font type. SetFontTTF always selects

This is either the full pathname of a TrueType font filename,

15 |
or the filename (without path) if the font file is either located in the

default TrueType font directory set with <a class="xref" href="SetTTFPath.html" title="SetTTFPath"><span class="refentrytitle">SetTTFPath</span></a>

The <code class="literal">generic</code> font is used for pie chart segment labels,

34 |
message image text (see <a class="xref" href="DrawMessage.html" title="DrawMessage"><span class="refentrytitle">DrawMessage</span></a>), error image text,

36 |
However, changing this font has no effect on error image text, because the

PHPlot error handler resets the font to the default before displaying the error.

|
|
|
47 |
Starting with PHPlot-5.1.3, TrueType fonts are validated by trying to
|
|
|
48 |
use the font with a non-drawing operation, rather than by seeing if the
|
|
|
49 |
font file exists.
|
|
|
50 |
See <a class="xref" href="conc-text.html#conc-text-fonts" title="3.8.3. TrueType Font Selection">Section 3.8.3, “TrueType Font Selection”</a> for more information.
|
|
|
51 |
</p><p>
|
|
|
52 |
This function was added at PHPlot-5.0.6, along with <a class="xref" href="SetFontGD.html" title="SetFontGD"><span class="refentrytitle">SetFontGD</span></a>,
|
|
|
53 |
to allow mixing GD and TrueType fonts in the same graph.
