R: List Font Families Loaded by 'sysfonts'

font_families {sysfonts} | R Documentation

## List Font Families Loaded by 'sysfonts'

### Description

The two versions of this function are equivalent, but the "underscore" naming is preferred.

This function lists font families currently available that can be used by R2SWF and showtext packages.

### Usage

    font_families()

    font.families()

### Details

By default there are three font families loaded automatically, i.e., "sans", "serif" and "mono". If one wants to use other fonts, `font_add()` needs to be called to register new fonts by specifying a family name and corresponding font files. See `font_add()` for details about the meaning of "family name" in this context, as well as a complete example of registering and using a new font.

### Value

A character vector of available font family names.
