Hi Phil!

With FindFonts you can get the number of embedded fonts.
In a loop now you can go through all found fonts with
FontID -> SelectFont (with FontID) -> FontName.
If the fontname is the one you want you can break the loop (SelectFont is already done) beginning with the DrawText-functions.

Best regards,
Ingo

Does anyone know how to select an existing embedded font?  I have a PDF that already has about 13 fonts embedded in it and I need to select a particular one before using the DrawWrappedText function.
 
I've seen samples where the fonts were added and the IDs remembered in the process and refered to later, but what about where the fonts are already embedded in the PDF.  How do you use them in writing new text to the PDF?  The SelectFont method requires that you already know the FontID of the desired font.  I need something like SelectFont("Arial").  Thanks.
