binding font files with PDF document in TCPDF

Question

Im scripting to generate a PDF file using TCPDF library, all I want now is to add font files into the document, I could add them using "SetFont" like

$pdf->SetFont('myfont', '', 10);

and its when I execute this script, the document in browser is rendering fonts perfectly, if I save it and open in another machine then fonts are working with, default fallback font is applying. I did check it by going to File->Properties->Fonts in Adobe reader, font file is listed there, but text is missing the font. Any idea will be helpful.

How are you adding the font files to the script? See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5263588/how-to-implement-custom-fonts-in-tcpdf — Robert, Feb 28 '14 at 11:30

You will probably want to embed the font using $pdf->AddFont().

A longer description of the differences between SetFont(), AddFont() and AddTTFFont() here:
