Class PdfFontCollection

Observable collection of fonts

Inheritance
System.Object
PdfFontCollection
Namespace: IronPdf.Fonts
Assembly: IronPdf.dll
Syntax
public class PdfFontCollection : ObservableCollection<PdfFont>

PdfFontCollection is the object IronPDF C# code works with for PDF fonts. It represents observable collection of fonts.

PdfFontCollection matters when an application needs to configure or invoke PDF fonts from C# code. The class encapsulates the related options and behavior in a single object that is set up once and reused across render or processing calls. Typical scenarios include batch generation pipelines, templated document workflows, and integration with existing C# document services.

To use PdfFontCollection, instantiate or obtain it from the relevant entry point in the IronPDF C# API. Key properties include Item[String]. Assign options or invoke methods on the instance to configure or perform the operation. The manage fonts covers typical usage in C# end to end.

using IronPdf;

// Obtain PdfFontCollection from the relevant entry point in the IronPDF API
void Configure(PdfFontCollection instance)
{
    var current = instance.Item[String];
    instance.Add();
}

For the broader workflow, see the IronPDF C# documentation for related how-to guides and examples. For broader context, the PDF fonts portion of the IronPDF C# API contains related types that work with PdfFontCollection directly. PdfFontCollection instances inherit additional members from ObservableCollection<PdfFont> that may be relevant in advanced scenarios. In application code, treat PdfFontCollection as a configured object that is constructed once and reused across operations rather than instantiated per call. Configuration is generally idempotent: assigning the same property value twice has the same effect as assigning it once. For diagnostic purposes, inspect the relevant PdfFontCollection property after each operation to confirm the configured state. See the constructors, properties, and methods tables below for the complete API surface of PdfFontCollection. Application code typically obtains or instantiates a single PdfFontCollection and shares it across multiple IronPDF operations rather than recreating it per call.
