How to add font using InputStream ?

[TGhoul]

My application is a jar file, only use getResourceAsStream() to read font files, Is there a way for this？

Hi @TGhoul,

You can use the builder methods:

        // Longhand method lets you specify font weight and style.
        builder.useFont(() -> App8.class.getResourceAsStream("/font-bold-italic.ttf"), "my-font-family", 700, FontStyle.ITALIC, true);

        // Shorthand method assumes font is normal weight and style.
        builder.useFont(() -> App8.class.getResourceAsStream("/font.ttf"), "my-font-family");

Note: It is not recommended to use input streams if using SVG or Java 2D output. See #613.

P.S. If this answers your question, feel free to close this issue.
