NAME
FcFileScan - scan a font file
SYNOPSIS
#include <fontconfig.h>
FcBool FcFileScan (FcFontSet *set, FcStrSet *dirs, FcFileCache *cache,
FcBlanks *blanks, const FcChar8 *file, FcBool force);
DESCRIPTION
Scans a single file and adds all fonts found to set. If force is
FcTrue, then the file is scanned even if associated information is
found in cache. If file is a directory, it is added to dirs. Whether
fonts are found depends on fontconfig policy as well as the current
configuration. Internally, fontconfig will ignore BDF and PCF fonts
which are not in Unicode (or the effectively equivalent ISO Latin-1)
encoding as those are not usable by Unicode-based applications. The
configuration can ignore fonts based on filename or contents of the
font file itself. Returns FcFalse if any of the fonts cannot be added
(due to allocation failure). Otherwise returns FcTrue.
