Hi Friends,
I am creating some pdf's and for some reason fontStream is returning null. Thanks !

Stream fontStream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(basePath + "OpenSans-Regular.ttf");

Where did you save this OpenSans-Regular.ttf? Did you save it in the project's Resources/Font folder? If not, please share this path completely.

If you want to read this OpenSans-Regular.ttf, you can copy it to the Raw folder, then set the buildAction to MauiAsset. Next, you can read it by Stream res= await FileSystem.OpenAppPackageFileAsync("OpenSans-Regular.ttf");

You can use this font file directly in MAUI, could you share detailed information with us about why you want to read it?
