I am converting a html to pdf using yii pdf extention but i don't want to use system font i wanna use roboto font in my html but can't able to use external file.

I just included this google api for roboto font <link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'> but this doesn't works.

Is there any other way to include roboto font in my html with yii pdf extension.

Thanks in advance.

do you want to import font and want to use that fontfamily in your html page ? – Brijal Savaliya Apr 20 '16 at 12:52
yes exactly i want to do this but here i am not able to import any external file no included file is working or if i use `font-family:roboto` i am getting this error `TCPDF ERROR: Could not include font definition file: roboto` – Gaurav Aggarwal Apr 20 '16 at 12:53
TCPDF ERROR , means i think you are adding fort to PDF creation or what ? – Brijal Savaliya Apr 20 '16 at 12:59
fort? please elaborate.. – Gaurav Aggarwal Apr 20 '16 at 13:01
means what you are generating pdf file with TCPDF and want to add externel fonts in it , that time you will get this type of error ? – Brijal Savaliya Apr 20 '16 at 13:02
So how it is possible? – Gaurav Aggarwal Apr 20 '16 at 13:04
$font = $pdf->addTTFfont("filename.ttf"); $pdf->SetFont($font,'',10); – Brijal Savaliya Apr 20 '16 at 13:06
