c# - Using Fonts in System with iTextSharp

I want to use iTextSharp to write some text. I'm using this method:

var font = BaseFont.CreateFont(BaseFont.TIMES_BOLD, BaseFont.WINANSI, BaseFont.EMBEDDED);

My question is: does iTextSharp support all fonts in the system fonts directory?

Say I have a font called 'mycoolfont' selected by the user in the font chooser dialog. Can I create a new iTextSharp font like this?

var font = BaseFont.CreateFont("mycoolfont", BaseFont.WINANSI, BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
overContent.SetFontAndSize(font, fontSize);

UPDATE:

I tried var font = BaseFont.CreateFont("Verdana", BaseFont.WINANSI, BaseFont.EMBEDDED); but got the error "Verdana" is not recognized by itextsharp

1st you need to register the font and then just retrieve it from the FontFactory (and don't create it every time):

public static iTextSharp.text.Font GetTahoma()
{
    var fontName = "Tahoma";
    if (!FontFactory.IsRegistered(fontName))
    {
         var fontPath = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("SystemRoot") + "\fonts\tahoma.ttf";
         FontFactory.Register(fontPath);
    }
    return FontFactory.GetFont(fontName, BaseFont.IDENTITY_H, BaseFont.EMBEDDED); 
}
