NAME FontExtent -- get the font attributes of the current font (V36) SYNOPSIS FontExtent(font, fontExtent) A0 A1 void FontExtent(struct textfont *, struct textextent *); FUNCTION This function fills the text extent structure with a bounding (i.e. maximum) extent for the characters in the specified font. INPUTS font - the textfont from which the font metrics are extracted. fontExtent - the textextent structure to be filled. RESULT fontExtent is filled. NOTES The textfont, not the rastport, is specified -- unlike textextent(), effect of algorithmic enhancements is not included, nor does te_Width include any effect of rp_TxSpacing. The returned te_Width will be negative only when FPF_REVPATH is set in the tf_Flags of the font -- the effect of left-moving characters is ignored for the width of a normal font, and the effect of right-moving characters is ignored if a REVPATH font. These characters will, however, be reflected in the bounding extent. SEE ALSO textextent() graphics/text.h
