PDF_findfont — Prepare font for later use [deprecated]

### Description

PDF_findfont ( resource `$p` , string `$fontname` , string `$encoding` , int `$embed` ) : int

Search for a font and prepare it for later use with PDF_setfont(). The metrics will be loaded, and if `embed` is nonzero, the font file will be checked, but not yet used. `encoding` is one of builtin, macroman, winansi, host, a user-defined encoding name or the name of a CMap. Parameter `embed` is optional before PHP 4.3.5 or with PDFlib less than 5.

This function is deprecated since PDFlib version 5, use PDF_load_font() instead.
