openfl.text.Font - API Reference

The Font class is used to manage embedded fonts in SWF files. Embedded fonts are represented as a subclass of the Font class. The Font class is currently useful only to find out information about embedded fonts; you cannot alter a font by using this class. You cannot use the Font class to load external fonts, or to create an instance of a Font object by itself. Use the Font class as an abstract base class.

Constructor

`new (?name:String)`

Variables

`read onlywrite onlyfontName:String`

The name of an embedded font.

`fontStyle:FontStyle`

The style of the font. This value can be any of the values defined in the FontStyle class.

`fontType:FontType`

The type of the font. This value can be any of the constants defined in the FontType class.

Static methods

`staticenumerateFonts (enumerateDeviceFonts:Bool = false):Array<Font>`

Specifies whether to provide a list of the currently available embedded fonts.

Parameters:

`enumerateDeviceFonts`	Indicates whether you want to limit the list to only the currently available embedded fonts. If this is set to `true` then a list of all fonts, both device fonts and embedded fonts, is returned. If this is set to `false` then only a list of embedded fonts is returned.

Returns:

A list of available fonts as an array of Font objects.

`staticfromBytes (bytes:ByteArray):Font`

`staticfromFile (path:String):Font`

`staticregisterFont (font:Class<Dynamic>):Void`

Registers a font class in the global font list.
