XLibur.Fonts.SkiaSharp

An optional font engine for XLibur that uses SkiaSharp for text measurement and font metrics. SkiaSharp is MIT-licensed, making it a permissive alternative to the SixLabors.Fonts engines.

Installation

dotnet add package XLibur.Fonts.SkiaSharp

Usage

This is the default XLibur font engine. Once this package is referenced, XLibur core auto-registers it the first time you create a workbook — no startup call is required:

using XLibur.Excel;

// Zero-config: SkiaSharp is discovered and registered automatically.
using var wb = new XLWorkbook();

The auto-registered default resolves system fonts and falls back to an embedded metric-only Calibri-compatible font (CarlitoBare), so text measurement works even in headless and serverless environments that have no system fonts installed.

Explicit / custom configuration

using XLibur.Excel;
using XLibur.Fonts.SkiaSharp;

// Register explicitly at startup (optional — overrides an earlier default):
SkiaSharpFontBootstrap.Register();

// Use system fonts with a named fallback
var fontEngine = new SkiaSharpFontEngine("Arial");
var options = new LoadOptions { FontEngine = fontEngine };
using var wb = new XLWorkbook(options);

// Or use stream-based fonts (useful for Blazor, serverless, etc.)
using var fontStream = File.OpenRead("MyFont.ttf");
var engine = SkiaSharpFontEngine.CreateOnlyWithFonts(fontStream);
var options2 = new LoadOptions { FontEngine = engine };
using var wb2 = new XLWorkbook(options2);

Native dependency

SkiaSharp wraps the native Skia graphics library, so this package brings native binaries per platform (unlike the pure-managed SixLabors.Fonts engines). On Linux it includes SkiaSharp.NativeAssets.Linux.NoDependencies, which needs no system fontconfig/freetype — stream-loaded fonts work in headless and serverless environments.

License

This package is licensed under MIT. SkiaSharp is also MIT-licensed (wrapping the BSD-licensed Skia engine).

See release notes https://github.com/XLibur/XLibur/releases/tag/v0.311.0 Convenience meta-package for XLibur. Installs XLibur together with the default SkiaSharp font engine (MIT). The engine auto-registers on first use — no startup call required. Equivalent to installing XLibur and XLibur.Fonts.SkiaSharp separately.
