NAME

FontExtent -- get the font attributes of the current font (V36)

SYNOPSIS

    FontExtent(font, fontExtent)
               A0    A1

    void FontExtent(struct TextFont *, struct TextExtent *);

Links: TextFont 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.
