Font info substitution rule. To learn more, visit the Working with Fonts documentation article.

Remarks

According to this rule Aspose.Words evaluates all the related fields in FontInfo (Panose, Sig etc) for the missing font and finds the closest match among the available font sources. If FontInfo is not available for the missing font then nothing will be done.

Inheritance: FontInfoSubstitutionRule → FontSubstitutionRule

Examples

Shows how to set the property for finding the closest match for a missing font from the available font sources.

# Open a document that contains text formatted with a font that does not exist in any of our font sources.
doc = aw.Document(file_name=MY_DIR + 'Missing font.docx')
# Assign a callback for handling font substitution warnings.
warning_collector = aw.WarningInfoCollection()
doc.warning_callback = warning_collector
# Set a default font name and enable font substitution.
font_settings = aw.fonts.FontSettings()
font_settings.substitution_settings.default_font_substitution.default_font_name = 'Arial'
font_settings.substitution_settings.font_info_substitution.enabled = True
# Original font metrics should be used after font substitution.
doc.layout_options.keep_original_font_metrics = True
# We will get a font substitution warning if we save a document with a missing font.
doc.font_settings = font_settings
doc.save(file_name=ARTIFACTS_DIR + 'FontSettings.EnableFontSubstitution.pdf')
for info in warning_collector:
    if info.warning_type == aw.WarningType.FONT_SUBSTITUTION:
        print(info.description)
