Declaring a font-stack?

[michihuber]

Is it possible to use a custom ttf-font but define a fallback to system fonts?
My custom font doesn’t include chinese glyphs, but I’d like those to be rendered through the user’s system font.

Unfortunately, that's not something that's supported at the moment. You can specify custom fonts for individual paragraphs however.

is that limitation in clj-pdf or openpdf? would like to give this a shot if it's possible to add (pointers appreciated).

I suspect it's likely a clj-pdf limitation as opposed to openpdf. I haven't looked if there is an option for doing that, but I'd start checking for that. If that's possible, then you'd be able to add it to the config map and set it in the setup-doc function when the document is being set up.

If openpdf doesn't provide a way to set this globally, then it may be possible to pass it around in the config, and then check for it in each element that renders text to set it. I'd like to avoid this approach if possible as it's going to be fragile to maintain.
