ABCFLOAT Structure

  • Article

The ABCFLOAT structure contains the A, B, and C widths of a font character.

typedef struct _ABCFLOAT { /* abcf */
   FLOAT abcfA;
   FLOAT abcfB;
   FLOAT abcfC;
} ABCFLOAT;

Parameters

  • abcfA
    Specifies the A spacing of the character. The A spacing is the distance to add to the current position before drawing the character glyph.

  • abcfB
    Specifies the B spacing of the character. The B spacing is the width of the drawn portion of the character glyph.

  • abcfC
    Specifies the C spacing of the character. The C spacing is the distance to add to the current position to provide white space to the right of the character glyph.

Remarks

The A, B, and C widths are measured along the base line of the font. The character increment (total width) of a character is the sum of the A, B, and C spaces. Either the A or the C space can be negative to indicate underhangs or overhangs.
