Can we use which fonts another DejaVuSans like Arial etc. ?

I think the fonts at https://github.com/naitoh/rbpdf/tree/master/rbpdf-font/lib/fonts would work.

Could you please share me another options please. Because, DejaVuSans font sizes too big for view in single page.

Since rbpdf support to a subset of fonts, the size of the PDF is determined based on the number of character types used in the PDF.

Can rbpdf use system fonts ?

If a non-embedded font is used, the system font is used.
e.g. courier, helvetica, times, symbol, zapfdingbats

See:

rbpdf/example/rails/app/controllers/example055_controller.rb

Line 60 in d078d84

core_fonts = ['courier', 'helvetica', 'times', 'symbol', 'zapfdingbats']
