Description

The macros and functions in this section are used to access fonts and render text to bitmaps using the FreeType 2 library.

Details

PangoFT2FontMap

typedef struct _PangoFT2FontMap PangoFT2FontMap;

The PangoFT2FontMap is the PangoFontMap implementation for FreeType fonts.


PANGO_RENDER_TYPE_FT2

#define PANGO_RENDER_TYPE_FT2 "PangoRenderFT2"

pango_ft2_font_map_new ()

PangoFontMap *      pango_ft2_font_map_new              (void);

Create a new PangoFT2FontMap object; a fontmap is used to cache information about available fonts, and holds certain global parameters such as the resolution and the default substitute function (see pango_ft2_font_map_set_default_substitute()).

Returns :

the newly created fontmap object. Unref with g_object_unref() when you are finished with it.

Since 1.2

Since 1.2


pango_ft2_font_map_create_context ()

PangoContext *      pango_ft2_font_map_create_context   (PangoFT2FontMap *fontmap);

Warning

pango_ft2_font_map_create_context has been deprecated since version 1.22 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use pango_font_map_create_context() instead.

Create a PangoContext for the given fontmap.

fontmap :

a PangoFT2Fontmap

Returns :

the newly created context; free with g_object_unref().

Since 1.2

fontmap :

a PangoFT2FontMap

func :

function to call to to do final config tweaking on FcPattern objects.
