    Hello!

    I want to extract the font type information from a file. For example, I have 2 font files: .ttf and .otf.
    How to get the OpenType or TrueType font type using Qt API? Is there any QFont methods to get such information? Thank you.

      Ok. I have got the font type information by font file mime type. Here is my solution.

      Code:

      QString getFontType(const QString &fileName) 
      {
         QString fontType = "";
         QMimeDatabase mimeDB;
         QMimeType mimeType = mimeDB.mimeTypeForFile(fileName, QMimeDatabase::MatchContent);
      
         if (mimeType.name().contains("application/x-font-ttf")) {
             fontType = "TrueType";
         } else if (mimeType.name().contains("application/x-font-otf")) {
             fontType = "OpenType";
         } else {
             fontType = "OtherType";
         }
      
         return fontType;
      }
      

      So, the issue is resolved.
