Automatic font set

Build a font_set() by detecting the best available system fonts for each role (sans, serif, mono, symbol).

For each role a list of well-known fonts is tried in order. When none is found on the system, the corresponding Liberation font is used as a guaranteed offline fallback.

Role	Candidates (in order)	Fallback
sans	Arial, Helvetica, DejaVu Sans	Liberation Sans
serif	Times New Roman, Times, DejaVu Serif	Liberation Serif
mono	Courier New, Courier, DejaVu Sans Mono	Liberation Mono
symbol	Symbol, Apple Symbols	Liberation Sans

Usage

font_set_auto()

Value

An object of class font_set.
