Custom font faces in jsPDF?

I found this was possible by modifying jsPDF.js to expose the existing addFont method in the public API.

In jsPDF.js, look for:

//---------------------------------------
// Public API

Add the following:

    API.addFont = function(postScriptName, fontName, fontStyle) {
      addFont(postScriptName, fontName, fontStyle, 'StandardEncoding');
    };

I put this method near other font methods for clarity – API.setFont, API.setFontSize, API.setFontType, etc.

Now in your code, use:

doc.addFont('ComicSansMS', 'Comic Sans', 'normal');
doc.setFont('Comic Sans');
doc.text(50,50,'Hello World');

This works for me with @font-face fonts included with css before loading jsPDF, as well as system fonts. There’s probably a better way to do this using jsPDF’s plugin framework, but this quick and dirty solution should at least get you going.

Note that doc.getFontList() will not show added fonts:

// TODO: iterate over fonts array or return copy of fontmap instead in case more are ever added.
