TCPDF generates pdf files, use $pdf->SetFont('stsongstdlight', '', 14);Set the font to Song Dynasty. The generated PDF has non-embedded fonts. If photoshop is not installed on the reader's computer, Garbled characters are displayed, and the generated pdf file cannot be converted into a picture using imagemagic.
I am very satisfied with the style of the font 'stsongstdlight'. I don't need to change to other fonts. How can I embed it into PDF?

stsongstdlight really couldn’t do it, so I had to use other fonts in the end. The specific steps are as follows:

<code>        //添加仿宋字体
        $fontFile=APP_ROOT_PATH . 'system/tcpdf/fonts/simfang.php';
        //$fontFile=APP_ROOT_PATH . 'system/tcpdf/fonts/stsongstdlight.php';如果用自带的stsongstdlight字体就不可以
        $pdf->AddFont('simfang', '', $fontFile,FALSE);</code>

If you use simfang font in this way, the font will be embedded.

Recommend another pdf backend solution: wkhtmltopdf

You can first use various template technologies to generate html pages, and then generate pdf.

Assembling pages like tcpdf is cumbersome, error-prone, and simply anti-human.
