Parameters

emSize

The logical size of the font in DIP units. A DIP ("device-independent pixel") equals 1/96 inch.

glyphIndices

An array of glyph indices. The glyphs are in logical order and the advance direction depends on the isRightToLeft parameter. The array must be allocated and be able to contain the number of elements specified by glyphCount.

glyphAdvances

An optional array of glyph advances in DIPs. The advance of a glyph is the amount to advance the position (in the direction of the baseline) after drawing the glyph. glyphAdvances contains the number of elements specified by glyphIndices.Length.

glyphOffsets

An optional array of glyph offsets, each of which specifies the offset along the baseline and offset perpendicular to the baseline of a glyph relative to the current pen position. glyphOffsets contains the number of elements specified by glyphIndices.Length.

isSideways

If TRUE, the ascender of the glyph runs alongside the baseline. If FALSE, the glyph ascender runs perpendicular to the baseline. For example, an English alphabet on a vertical baseline would have isSideways set to FALSE. A client can render a vertical run by setting isSideways to TRUE and rotating the resulting geometry 90 degrees to the right using a transform. The isSideways and isRightToLeft parameters cannot both be true.

isRightToLeft

The visual order of the glyphs. If this parameter is FALSE, then glyph advances are from left to right. If TRUE, the advance direction is right to left. By default, the advance direction is left to right.

geometrySink

A reference to the interface that is called back to perform outline drawing operations.
