GetFontFamily

Returns the font family from the current text properties. The method automatically calculates the font from the theme if the font was set via the theme.

Inherited from ApiTextPr.GetFontFamily.

Example

Read the typeface name used for a run of text in a document.

// How do I find out which font family is applied to a piece of text in a document?

// Inspect a text run to discover what font is currently set for it in a document.

let doc = Api.GetDocument();
let myNewRunStyle = doc.CreateStyle("My New Run Style", "run");
let textPr = myNewRunStyle.GetTextPr();
textPr.SetCaps(true);
textPr.SetFontFamily("Calibri Light");
let paragraph = doc.GetElement(0);
let run = Api.CreateRun();
run.AddText("This is just a sample text. ");
run.AddText("The text properties are changed and the style is added to the paragraph. ");
paragraph.AddElement(run);
run = Api.CreateRun();
run.SetStyle(myNewRunStyle);
run.AddText("This is a text run with its own style.");
textPr = run.GetTextPr();
textPr.SetFontFamily("Arial");
paragraph.AddElement(run);
paragraph = Api.CreateParagraph();
let fontFamily = textPr.GetFontFamily();
paragraph.AddText("Font family: " + fontFamily);
doc.Push(paragraph);
