Aspose.Font for .NET 25.6 Release Notes

This page contains release notes information for Aspose.Font for .NET 25.6.

Major Features

Added support for converting fonts from Compact Font Format (CFF) to OpenType font format (OTF).

You can use method Aspose.Font.Font.Convert or method Aspose.Font.Font.SaveToFormat to convert font from CFF to OTF format.

Next code snippets show both cases.

Conversion from CFF to OTF format using method Aspose.Font.Font.Convert

    // Open CFF font
    string fontPath = Path.Combine(DataDir, "CenturyGothic.cff");
    FontDefinition fontDefinition = new FontDefinition(FontType.CFF, new FontFileDefinition("cff", new FileSystemStreamSource(fontPath)));
    Font font = Font.Open(fontDefinition);
 
    // Convert font into OpenType format and cast font returned to Aspose.Font.Ttf.TtfFont
    Aspose.Font.Ttf.TtfFont destFont = font.Convert(FontType.OTF) as Aspose.Font.Ttf.TtfFont;
 
    // Change name of converted font
    destFont.FontName = "CenturyGothic_Converted";
 
    // OTF output settings
    string outPath = Path.Combine(OutputDir, "CffToOtf_out.otf");
 
    // Save resultant font with font name changed
    destFont.Save(outPath);

Conversion from CFF to OTF format using method Aspose.Font.Font.SaveToFormat

    // Open CFF font
    string fontPath = Path.Combine(DataDir, "Montserrat-Regular.cff");
    FontDefinition fontDefinition = new FontDefinition(FontType.CFF, new FontFileDefinition(new FileSystemStreamSource(fontPath)));
    Font font = Font.Open(fontDefinition);
 
    // OTF output settings
    string outPath = Path.Combine(OutputDir, "Montserrat-Regular.otf");
    FileStream outStream = File.Create(outPath);
    
    // Converts a font into OTF format and saves the converted font in a stream.
    font.SaveToFormat(outStream, FontSavingFormats.OTF);
