For implementation purposes only. Do not use this.

Declaration

public FontImpBase _fontImp

Field Value

Type	Description
FontImpBase

Properties

PixelHeight

Gets and sets the size in pixels.

Declaration

public uint PixelHeight { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.UInt32	The vertical size of the font in pixels.

UseKerning

Gets and sets a value indicating whether the kerning definition of a font should be used.

Declaration

public bool UseKerning { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
System.Boolean	true if the kerning definition of a font should be used; otherwise, false.

Methods

GetGlyphCurve(UInt32)

Gets the character's points, contours and tags and translates them into a curve.

Declaration

public Curve GetGlyphCurve(uint c)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.UInt32	c	The character from which the information is to be read.

Returns

Type	Description
Curve

GetGlyphInfo(UInt32)

Gets the character information.

Declaration

public GlyphInfo GetGlyphInfo(uint c)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.UInt32	c	The character to retrieve information.

Returns

Type	Description
GlyphInfo	An information record about the character.

GetImageDataForGlyph(UInt32, in GlyphInfo)

Renders the given glyph.

Declaration

public IImageData GetImageDataForGlyph(uint c, in GlyphInfo info)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.UInt32	c	The character code (Unicode) of the character to render.
GlyphInfo	info	Provides info about a character.

Returns

Type	Description
IImageData	An image data structure containing an image of the given character.

GetKerning(UInt32, UInt32)

Gets the kerning offset between a pair of two consecutive characters in a text string.

Declaration

public float GetKerning(uint leftC, uint rightC)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.UInt32	leftC	The left character.
System.UInt32	rightC	The right character.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Single	An offset to add to the normal advance. Typically negative since kerning rather compacts text lines.

GetUnscaledAdvance(UInt32)

Get the unscaled advance from a character.

Declaration

public float GetUnscaledAdvance(uint c)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.UInt32	c	The character from which the information is to be read.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Single

GetUnscaledKerning(UInt32, UInt32)

Declaration

public float GetUnscaledKerning(uint leftC, uint rightC)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.UInt32	leftC	The left character.
System.UInt32	rightC	The right character.

Returns
