Interface FontMapper
- All Known Implementing Classes:
AsianFontMapper

public interface FontMapper
A FontMapper implementation handles mappings between AWT Fonts and PDF fonts. An interface is used instead of a fixed
class because there isn't an exact correlation between the font types, so each application is free to define a
mapping which is appropriate for it.
