FMSwapFont

Obtain information about an adapted font

#include <Fonts.h> Font Manager

FMOutPtr FMSwapFont(inRec );

FMInput *inRec ; address of a 16-byte FMInput structure

returns address of a 26-byte FMOutput structure

FMSwapFont is used by applications that create or modify fonts. The return

information describes a font after it has been adapted (i.e., scaled or

transformed by a style such as bold or italics).

inRec is the address of a 16-byte FMInput structure. Its fields should

specify the font number, size, and other variations of the font of

interest.

Returns: the address of a 26-byte FMOutput structure. Its fields contain a

everything you need to know about a font, including a handle to the

FontRec from which the specified variation was derived.

Notes: If the fields of inRec do not identify a real font/size, then the

return information will describe a transformed variation (it may even be

based on a different typeface!). See RealFont for the algorithm used by the

Font Manager to create a font/size that does not exist.

See Fonts for general information about fonts and a graphic sampling of

common fonts.
