Win32 Fonts and Rendering

Win32 Fonts and Rendering — Functions for shape engines to manipulate Win32 fonts

Types and Values

Description

The macros and functions in this section are used to access fonts natively on Win32 systems and to render text in conjunction with Win32 APIs.

Functions

pango_win32_get_context ()

PangoContext *
pango_win32_get_context (void);

pango_win32_get_context has been deprecated since version 1.22 and should not be used in newly-written code.

Use pango_win32_font_map_for_display() followed by pango_font_map_create_context() instead.

Retrieves a PangoContext appropriate for rendering with Windows fonts.

Returns

the new PangoContext


pango_win32_render ()

void
pango_win32_render (HDC hdc,
                    PangoFont *font,
                    PangoGlyphString *glyphs,
                    gint x,
                    gint y);

Render a PangoGlyphString onto a Windows DC

Parameters

hdc

the device context

 

font

the font in which to draw the string

 

glyphs

the glyph string to draw

 

x

the x position of start of string (in pixels)

 

y

the y position of baseline (in pixels)

 

pango_win32_render_transformed ()

void
pango_win32_render_transformed (HDC hdc,
                                const PangoMatrix *matrix,
                                PangoFont *font,
                                PangoGlyphString *glyphs,

                                int y);

Renders a PangoGlyphString onto a windows DC, possibly transforming the layed-out coordinates through a transformation matrix. Note that the transformation matrix for font is not changed, so to produce correct rendering results, the font must have been loaded using a PangoContext with an identical transformation matrix to that passed in to this function.

Parameters

hdc

a windows device context

 

matrix

a PangoMatrix, or NULL to use an identity transformation.

[nullable]

font

the font in which to draw the string

 

glyphs

the glyph string to draw

 

x

the x position of the start of the string (in Pango units in user space coordinates)

 

y

the y position of the baseline (in Pango units in user space coordinates)

 

pango_win32_render_layout_line ()

Returns

The font structure, or NULL if the font could not be loaded. In order to free this structure, you must call pango_win32_font_cache_unload().

[nullable]


pango_win32_font_cache_loadw ()

HFONT
pango_win32_font_cache_loadw (PangoWin32FontCache *cache,
                              const LOGFONTW *logfont);

Creates a HFONT from a LOGFONTW. The result may be newly loaded, or it may have been previously stored

Parameters

cache

a PangoWin32FontCache

 

logfont

a pointer to a LOGFONTW structure describing the font to load.

 

Returns

The font structure, or NULL if the font could not be loaded. In order to free this structure, you must call pango_win32_font_cache_unload().

Frees a font structure previously loaded with pango_win32_font_cache_load().

Parameters

cache

a PangoWin32FontCache

 

hfont

the HFONT to unload

 

pango_win32_font_map_for_display ()

PangoFontMap *
pango_win32_font_map_for_display (void);

Returns a PangoWin32FontMap. Font maps are cached and should not be freed. If the font map is no longer needed, it can be released with pango_win32_shutdown_display().

Returns

a PangoFontMap.


pango_win32_shutdown_display ()

void
pango_win32_shutdown_display (void);

Free cached resources.


pango_win32_font_map_get_font_cache ()

PangoWin32FontCache *
pango_win32_font_map_get_font_cache (PangoFontMap *font_map);

Obtains the font cache associated with the given font map.

Parameters

font_map

a PangoWin32FontMap.

 

Returns

the PangoWin32FontCache of font_map .


pango_win32_font_logfont ()

LOGFONTA *
pango_win32_font_logfont (PangoFont *font);

Determine the LOGFONTA struct for the specified font. Note that Pango internally uses LOGFONTW structs, so if converting the UTF-16 face name in the LOGFONTW struct to system codepage fails, the returned LOGFONTA will have an emppty face name. To get the LOGFONTW of a PangoFont, use pango_win32_font_logfontw(). It is recommended to do that always even if you don't expect to come across fonts with odd names.

Parameters

font

a PangoFont which must be from the Win32 backend

 

Returns

A newly allocated LOGFONTA struct. It must be freed with g_free().


pango_win32_font_logfontw ()

LOGFONTW *
pango_win32_font_logfontw (PangoFont *font);

Determine the LOGFONTW struct for the specified font.

Parameters

font

a PangoFont which must be from the Win32 backend

 

Returns

A newly allocated LOGFONTW struct. It must be freed with g_free().

Since: 1.16


pango_win32_font_description_from_logfont ()

PangoFontDescription *
pango_win32_font_description_from_logfont
                               (const LOGFONTA *lfp);

Creates a PangoFontDescription that matches the specified LOGFONTA.

The face name, italicness and weight fields in the LOGFONTA are used to set up the resulting PangoFontDescription. If the face name in the LOGFONTA contains non-ASCII characters the font is temporarily loaded (using CreateFontIndirect()) and an ASCII (usually English) name for it is looked up from the font name tables in the font data. If that doesn't work, the face name is converted from the system codepage to UTF-8 and that is used.

Parameters

lfp

a LOGFONTA

 

Returns

the newly allocated PangoFontDescription, which should be freed using pango_font_description_free()

Since: 1.12


pango_win32_font_description_from_logfontw ()

PangoFontDescription *
pango_win32_font_description_from_logfontw
                               (const LOGFONTW *lfp);

Creates a PangoFontDescription that matches the specified LOGFONTW.

The face name, italicness and weight fields in the LOGFONTW are used to set up the resulting PangoFontDescription. If the face name in the LOGFONTW contains non-ASCII characters the font is temporarily loaded (using CreateFontIndirect()) and an ASCII (usually English) name for it is looked up from the font name tables in the font data. If that doesn't work, the face name is converted from UTF-16 to UTF-8 and that is used.

Parameters

lfp

a LOGFONTW

 

Returns

the newly allocated PangoFontDescription, which should be freed using pango_font_description_free()

Since: 1.16
