Description

Pango supports a flexible architecture where a particular rendering architecture can supply an implementation of fonts. The PangoFont structure represents an abstract rendering-system-independent font. Pango provides routines to list available fonts, and to load a font of a given description.

Details

PangoFontDescription

typedef struct _PangoFontDescription PangoFontDescription;

The PangoFontDescription structure represents the description of an ideal font. These structures are used both to list what fonts are available on the system and also for specifying the characteristics of a font to load.


PANGO_TYPE_FONT_DESCRIPTION

#define PANGO_TYPE_FONT_DESCRIPTION (pango_font_description_get_type ())

The GObject type for PangoFontDescription.


enum PangoStyle

typedef enum {
  PANGO_STYLE_NORMAL,
  PANGO_STYLE_OBLIQUE,
  PANGO_STYLE_ITALIC
} PangoStyle;

An enumeration specifying the various slant styles possible for a font.

PANGO_STYLE_NORMAL

the font is upright.

PANGO_STYLE_OBLIQUE

the font is slanted, but in a roman style.

PANGO_STYLE_ITALIC

the font is slanted in an italic style.

PANGO_TYPE_STYLE

#define PANGO_TYPE_STYLE (pango_style_get_type())

The GObject type for PangoStyle.


enum PangoWeight

typedef enum {
  PANGO_WEIGHT_THIN = 100,
  PANGO_WEIGHT_ULTRALIGHT = 200,
  PANGO_WEIGHT_LIGHT = 300,
  PANGO_WEIGHT_BOOK = 380,
  PANGO_WEIGHT_NORMAL = 400,
  PANGO_WEIGHT_MEDIUM = 500,
  PANGO_WEIGHT_SEMIBOLD = 600,
  PANGO_WEIGHT_BOLD = 700,
  PANGO_WEIGHT_ULTRABOLD = 800,
  PANGO_WEIGHT_HEAVY = 900,
  PANGO_WEIGHT_ULTRAHEAVY = 1000
} PangoWeight;

An enumeration specifying the weight (boldness) of a font. This is a numerical value ranging from 100 to 900, but there are some predefined values:

PANGO_WEIGHT_THIN

the thin weight (= 100; Since: 1.24)

PANGO_WEIGHT_ULTRALIGHT

the ultralight weight (= 200)

PANGO_WEIGHT_LIGHT

the light weight (= 300)

PANGO_WEIGHT_BOOK

the book weight (= 380; Since: 1.24)

PANGO_WEIGHT_NORMAL

PangoFontDescription * pango_font_description_new       (void);

Creates a new font description structure with all fields unset.

Returns :

the newly allocated PangoFontDescription, which should be freed using pango_font_description_free().

pango_font_description_copy ()

PangoFontDescription * pango_font_description_copy      (const PangoFontDescription *desc);

Make a copy of a PangoFontDescription.

desc :

a PangoFontDescription, may be NULL

Returns :

the newly allocated PangoFontDescription, which should be freed with pango_font_description_free(), or NULL if desc was NULL.

pango_font_description_copy_static ()

                                                        (const PangoFontDescription *desc);

Like pango_font_description_copy(), but only a shallow copy is made of the family name and other allocated fields. The result can only be used until desc is modified or freed. This is meant to be used when the copy is only needed temporarily.

desc :

a PangoFontDescription, may be NULL

Returns :

the newly allocated PangoFontDescription, which should be freed with pango_font_description_free(), or NULL if desc was NULL.

pango_font_description_hash ()

Compares two font descriptions for equality. Two font descriptions are considered equal if the fonts they describe are provably identical. This means that their masks do not have to match, as long as other fields are all the same. (Two font descriptions may result in identical fonts being loaded, but still compare FALSE.)

desc1 :

a PangoFontDescription

desc2 :

another PangoFontDescription

Returns :

TRUE if the two font descriptions are identical, FALSE otherwise.

pango_font_description_free ()

void                pango_font_description_free         (PangoFontDescription *desc);

Sets the family name field of a font description. The family name represents a family of related font styles, and will resolve to a particular PangoFontFamily. In some uses of PangoFontDescription, it is also possible to use a comma separated list of family names for this field.

desc :

a PangoFontDescription.

family :

a string representing the family name.

pango_font_description_set_family_static ()

void                pango_font_description_set_family_static

Sets the style field of a PangoFontDescription. The PangoStyle enumeration describes whether the font is slanted and the manner in which it is slanted; it can be either PANGO_STYLE_NORMAL, PANGO_STYLE_ITALIC, or PANGO_STYLE_OBLIQUE. Most fonts will either have a italic style or an oblique style, but not both, and font matching in Pango will match italic specifications with oblique fonts and vice-versa if an exact match is not found.

Sets the size field of a font description in fractional points. This is mutually exclusive with pango_font_description_set_absolute_size().

desc :

a PangoFontDescription

size :

the size of the font in points, scaled by PANGO_SCALE. (That is, a size value of 10 * PANGO_SCALE is a 10 point font. The conversion factor between points and device units depends on system configuration and the output device. For screen display, a logical DPI of 96 is common, in which case a 10 point font corresponds to a 10 * (96 / 72) = 13.3 pixel font. Use pango_font_description_set_absolute_size() if you need a particular size in device units.

pango_font_description_get_size ()

gint                pango_font_description_get_size     (const PangoFontDescription *desc);

Gets the size field of a font description. See pango_font_description_set_size().

desc :

a PangoFontDescription

Returns :

the size field for the font description in points or device units. You must call pango_font_description_get_size_is_absolute() to find out which is the case. Returns 0 if the size field has not previously been set or it has been set to 0 explicitly. Use pango_font_description_get_set_fields() to find out if the field was explicitly set or not.

pango_font_description_set_absolute_size ()

void                pango_font_description_set_absolute_size
                                                        (PangoFontDescription *desc,
                                                         double size);

Sets the size field of a font description, in device units. This is mutually exclusive with pango_font_description_set_size() which sets the font size in points.

desc :

a PangoFontDescription

size :

the new size, in Pango units. There are PANGO_SCALE Pango units in one device unit. For an output backend where a device unit is a pixel, a size value of 10 * PANGO_SCALE gives a 10 pixel font.

Since 1.8


pango_font_description_get_size_is_absolute ()

gboolean            pango_font_description_get_size_is_absolute
                                                        (const PangoFontDescription *desc);

pango_font_description_unset_fields ()

void                pango_font_description_unset_fields (PangoFontDescription *desc,
                                                         PangoFontMask to_unset);

Unsets some of the fields in a PangoFontDescription. The unset fields will get back to their default values.

desc :

a PangoFontDescription

to_unset :

bitmask of fields in the desc to unset.

pango_font_description_merge ()

void                pango_font_description_merge        (PangoFontDescription *desc,
                                                         const PangoFontDescription *desc_to_merge,

Merges the fields that are set in desc_to_merge into the fields in desc. If replace_existing is FALSE, only fields in desc that are not already set are affected. If TRUE, then fields that are already set will be replaced as well.

If desc_to_merge is NULL, this function performs nothing.

desc :

a PangoFontDescription

desc_to_merge :

the PangoFontDescription to merge from, or NULL

replace_existing :

if TRUE, replace fields in desc with the corresponding values from desc_to_merge, even if they are already exist.

pango_font_description_merge_static ()

void                pango_font_description_merge_static (PangoFontDescription *desc,
                                                         const PangoFontDescription *desc_to_merge,
                                                         gboolean replace_existing);

Like pango_font_description_merge(), but only a shallow copy is made of the family name and other allocated fields. desc can only be used until desc_to_merge is modified or freed. This is meant to be used when the merged font description is only needed temporarily.

desc :

a PangoFontDescription

desc_to_merge :

the PangoFontDescription to merge from

replace_existing :

if TRUE, replace fields in desc with the corresponding values from desc_to_merge, even if they are already exist.

Determines if the style attributes of new_match are a closer match for desc than those of old_match are, or if old_match is NULL, determines if new_match is a match at all. Approximate matching is done for weight and style; other style attributes must match exactly. Style attributes are all attributes other than family and size-related attributes. Approximate matching for style considers PANGO_STYLE_OBLIQUE and PANGO_STYLE_ITALIC as matches, but not as good a match as when the styles are equal.

Note that old_match must match desc.

desc :

a PangoFontDescription

old_match :

a PangoFontDescription, or NULL

new_match :

a PangoFontDescription

Returns :

TRUE if new_match is a better match

pango_font_description_from_string ()

                                                        (const char *str);

Creates a new font description from a string representation in the form "[FAMILY-LIST] [STYLE-OPTIONS] [SIZE]", where FAMILY-LIST is a comma separated list of families optionally terminated by a comma, STYLE_OPTIONS is a whitespace separated list of words where each WORD describes one of style, variant, weight, stretch, or gravity, and SIZE is a decimal number (size in points) or optionally followed by the unit modifier "px" for absolute size. Any one of the options may be absent. If FAMILY-LIST is absent, then the family_name field of the resulting font description will be initialized to NULL. If STYLE-OPTIONS is missing, then all style options will be set to the default values. If SIZE is missing, the size in the resulting font description will be set to 0.

str :

string representation of a font description.

Returns :

a new PangoFontDescription.

pango_font_description_to_string ()

char *                 pango_font_description_to_string (const PangoFontDescription *desc);

Creates a string representation of a font description. See pango_font_description_from_string() for a description of the format of the string representation. The family list in the string description will only have a terminating comma if the last word of the list is a valid style option.

desc :

a PangoFontDescription

Returns :

a new string that must be freed with g_free().

pango_font_description_to_filename ()

char *                 pango_font_description_to_filename
                                                        (const PangoFontDescription *desc);

Creates a filename representation of a font description. The filename is identical to the result from calling pango_font_description_to_string(), but with underscores instead of characters that are untypical in filenames, and in lower case only.

desc :

a PangoFontDescription

Returns :

a new string that must be freed with g_free().

struct PangoFontMetrics

struct PangoFontMetrics {

  int descent;
  int approximate_char_width;
  int approximate_digit_width;
  int underline_position;
  int underline_thickness;
  int strikethrough_position;
  int strikethrough_thickness;
};

A PangoFontMetrics structure holds the overall metric information for a font (possibly restricted to a script). The fields of this structure are private to implementations of a font backend. See the documentation of the corresponding getters for documentation of their meaning.

guint ref_count;

reference count. Used internally. See pango_font_metrics_ref() and pango_font_metrics_unref().

int ascent;

the distance from the baseline to the highest point of the glyphs of the font. This is positive in practically all fonts.

int descent;

the distance from the baseline to the lowest point of the glyphs of the font. This is positive in practically all fonts.

int approximate_char_width;

approximate average width of the regular glyphs of the font. Note that for this calculation, East Asian characters (those passing g_unichar_iswide()) are counted as double-width. This produces a more uniform value for this measure across languages and results in more uniform and more expected UI sizes.

int approximate_digit_width;

approximate average width of the glyphs for digits of the font.

int underline_position;

position of the underline. This is normally negative.

int underline_thickness;

thickness of the underline.

int strikethrough_position;

position of the strikethrough line. This is normally positive.

int strikethrough_thickness;

thickness of the strikethrough line.

PangoFont

typedef struct _PangoFont PangoFont;

The PangoFont structure is used to represent a font in a rendering-system-independent matter. To create an implementation of a PangoFont, the rendering-system specific code should allocate a larger structure that contains a nested PangoFont, fill in the klass member of the nested PangoFont with a pointer to a appropriate PangoFontClass, then call pango_font_init() on the structure.

The PangoFont structure contains one member which the implementation fills in.

Gets the logical and ink extents of a glyph within a font. The coordinate system for each rectangle has its origin at the base line and horizontal origin of the character with increasing coordinates extending to the right and down. The macros PANGO_ASCENT(), PANGO_DESCENT(), PANGO_LBEARING(), and PANGO_RBEARING() can be used to convert from the extents rectangle to more traditional font metrics. The units of the rectangles are in 1/PANGO_SCALE of a device unit.

If font is NULL, this function gracefully sets some sane values in the output variables and returns.

font :

a PangoFont

glyph :

the glyph index

ink_rect :

rectangle used to store the extents of the glyph as drawn or NULL to indicate that the result is not needed.

                                                         PangoLanguage *language);

Gets overall metric information for a font. Since the metrics may be substantially different for different scripts, a language tag can be provided to indicate that the metrics should be retrieved that correspond to the script(s) used by that language.

If font is NULL, this function gracefully sets some sane values in the output variables and returns.

font :

a PangoFont

language :

language tag used to determine which script to get the metrics for, or NULL to indicate to get the metrics for the entire font.

Returns :

a PangoFontMetrics object. The caller must call pango_font_metrics_unref() when finished using the object.

pango_font_get_font_map ()

PangoFontMap *      pango_font_get_font_map             (PangoFont *font);

Gets the font map for which the font was created.

Note that the font maintains a weak reference to the font map, so if all references to font map are dropped, the font map will be finalized even if there are fonts created with the font map that are still alive. In that case this function will return NULL. It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the font map is kept alive. In most uses this is not an issue as a PangoContext holds a reference to the font map.

font :

a PangoFont, or NULL

Returns :

the PangoFontMap for the font, or NULL if font is NULL.

Since 1.10

pango_font_family_is_monospace ()

gboolean            pango_font_family_is_monospace      (PangoFontFamily *family);

A monospace font is a font designed for text display where the the characters form a regular grid. For Western languages this would mean that the advance width of all characters are the same, but this categorization also includes Asian fonts which include double-width characters: characters that occupy two grid cells. g_unichar_iswide() returns a result that indicates whether a character is typically double-width in a monospace font.

The best way to find out the grid-cell size is to call pango_font_metrics_get_approximate_digit_width(), since the results of pango_font_metrics_get_approximate_char_width() may be affected by double-width characters.

family :

a PangoFontFamily

Returns :

TRUE if the family is monospace.
