Use Edit->Text->Font Style->Family... to change just the font family for selected . To change the current font family to apply to new text areas, use Settings->Styles... and select the tab labeled Font.
The labeled Font Family (see Figure 9.15) provides a list of locally available fonts. You can select the required font from this list.
When you select a font family, Jpgfdraw guesses at the
appropriate LaTeX font family declaration. This is used if you save
your image as a LaTeX file. If Jpgfdraw has guessed incorrectly,
you can select a different command from the on the
right, or you can edit it if you require a font family declaration
that is not listed. Alternatively you can clear the value (by deleting
the family declaration) to use the current document font family.
Note that Jpgfdraw only guesses at a LaTeX alternative when
you select a new font family from the Font Family
. If there is a particular mapping that you always
want, you can
create a file called latexfontmap9.1 in Jpgfdraw's configuration
directory. Each line in this file should be in the
form:
<font name>=<LaTeX declaration>
where
<font name> is the name of the font family (e.g. URW Chancery
L) and <LaTeX declaration> is the code9.2 used to set the font in a LaTeX document. Blank lines or lines starting with a hash (#) are
ignored. For example, on my laptop I have the font "URW Chancery
L". If I select this font, the LaTeX equivalent will default to
\rmfamily. However, it would be more appropriate for the
LaTeX declaration to select the PSNFSS chancery font. Therefore, I
can use my favorite text editor to create a file called
latexfontmap with the line
URW Chancery L=\fontfamily{pzc}\selectfontand save it in Jpgfdraw's configuration directory. Next time I start Jpgfdraw, it will load this mapping and use it whenever I select "URW Chancery L" from the font name selector. Alternatively, you can use a regular expression. For example:
.*[Cc]hancery.*=\fontfamily{pzc}\selectfontThis will select
\fontfamily{pzc}\selectfont
for any font
that contains either "Chancery" or "chancery" in its name.
It is however faster to use the exact name.
