setDefaultFont

The font is not embedded within the Word document so make sure to use fonts that will be available to your target audience or the font is embedded in the base template.

Code samples

Example #1

package examples.LayoutAndGeneral.setDefaultFont;

import com.javadocx.CreateDocx;

public class Sample1 {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        CreateDocx docx = new CreateDocx();
        
        // set the default font for the document
        docx.setDefaultFont("Arial Narrow");

        // include some paragraphs of plain text
        docx.addText("This text is going to show in Arial Narrow font because it is the chosen default font.");
        docx.addText("The standard default font is usually Calibri.");
        
        docx.createDocx("example_setDefaultFont_1");
    }
}
