We only ever load the default list of directories. At some future point, we will allow users to specify directories that contain additional fonts.

Parameters:

Gdd - the GDD

Method Detail

loadDefaultFontDirs

public void loadDefaultFontDirs(java.util.LinkedList<java.lang.String> dirs)

Create a list of the directories on the system that contain fonts. We use the directories that are employed by iText and we add the Platypus font directory (in PLATYPUS_HOME) and the font files included with the Java JVM.

Parameters:
