Function Reference

Page 434 of 860

Remarks:

The function does not use the exception handling of DynaPDF. No error message is set if the

function fails. However, the only possible error is out of memory if the function parameters are

valid.

Note that the function was mainly designed to return the properties of fonts which were imported

from external PDF files. Many properties of system fonts, like CharSet, CIDSet, ToUnicode CMap

and so on cannot be returned since these objects will be created when the PDF file in memory is

closed.

Return values:

If the function succeeds the return value is 1. If the function fails the return value is 0.

GetFontInfoEx

Syntax:

LBOOL pdfGetFontInfoEx(

const PPDF* IPDF,

// Instance pointer

UI32 Handle,

// Font handle

struct TPDFFontInfo* F) // Structure to be filled

The function retrieves the most important properties of a font like GetFontInfo() but accepts a font

handle instead. A font handle is a simple array index. To enumerate all fonts of a document execute

the function in a loop from zero to GetFontCount() - 1. See also GetFontInfo().

Return values:

If the function succeeds the return value is 1. If the function fails the return value is 0.

GetFontOrigin

Syntax:

SI32 pdfGetFontOrigin(

const PPDF* IPDF) // Instance pointer

typedef enum

{

orDownLeft = 0, // Baseline

orTopLeft

= 1

// Upper left corner of the font's bounding box

}TOrigin;

The function returns the current font origin. The font origin is automatically set to orTopLeft or

orDownLeft if the coordinate system will be changed. The origin can be changed at runtime with the

function SetFontOrigin().

Default value = orDownLeft

Font origin:

0 0
