standard-fonts
> Collection of metrics and encodings for the standard 14 PDF fonts
This project is a fork of [`afm`](https://github.com/chbrown/afm) and was created for use in [`pdf-lib`](https://github.com/Hopding/pdf-lib). This forks exists for two primary reasons:
1. The original project did not include mappings from Unicode to WinAnsi/ZapfDingbats/Symbol encodings.
2. The font metrics included in the original project were uncompressed (not ideal for usage in `pdf-lib`).
## Usage
```js
import { Font, FontNames, Encodings } from '@pdf-lib/standard-fonts';
const codePoint = '∑'.charCodeAt(0);
const glyph = Encodings.Symbol.encodeUnicodeCodePoint(codePoint);
glyph // => { code: 229, name: 'summation' }
const font = Font.load(FontNames.Symbol);
const width = font.getWidthOfGlyph(glyph.name);
width // => 713
```
## Installation
### NPM Module
To install the latest stable version:

This assumes you're using [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/) or [yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/) as your package manager.
### UMD Module
You can also download `@pdf-lib/standard-fonts` as a UMD module from [unpkg](https://unpkg.com/#/). The UMD builds have been compiled to ES5, so they should work [in any modern browser](https://caniuse.com/#feat=es5). UMD builds are useful if you aren't using a package manager or module bundler. For example, you can use them directly in the `
