Add Custom Fonts

[markitosgv]

I have noticed that some pdfs, when converting from a .docx do not have the right fonts, would it be possible to add custom fonts somehow?

Or install more default fonts in the Dockerfile Base like this:

    # Install fonts.

End users are able to install fonts on the host that Stirling-PDF is running on. Instead of bundling a group of default fonts (which may not be useful or might lack some fonts they need), we should instead add something like this to the documentation.

I run Stirling PDF inside a docker container and added by issuing following command on the host system: apt install ttf-mscorefonts-installer

And then adding the installation path as a (read-only) mount so the container could use it:

• /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts:/usr/share/fonts/msttcorefonts:ro
