Supported Fonts in PDF Format

Salesforce PDF rendering supports a limited set of font-family values.

These rules apply to server-side PDF rendering. Browser output can differ.

Supported font-family values

Typeface

Supported font-family values

Arial Unicode MS

Arial Unicode MS

Helvetica family

sans-serif, SansSerif, Dialog

Times family

serif, Times

Courier family

monospace, Courier, Monospaced, DialogInput

Fallback behavior

If you use a value that is not listed here, PDF output falls back to Times.

For example, Helvetica is not a supported font-family value in Salesforce PDF rendering.

Use sans-serif instead.

Multibyte character support

Arial Unicode MS is the only multibyte font available in Salesforce PDF rendering.

Use it when your document includes characters from languages that do not use the Latin character set.

Arial Unicode MS does not support bold or italic styling in this PDF rendering context.

For guidance on that limitation, read Bold and Italics with Unicode Fonts In PDF.

Web font support

Web fonts are not supported when a page is rendered as a PDF file.
