PS_BEGIN_FONT(3)					     Library Functions Manual						  PS_BEGIN_FONT(3)

NAME

       PS_begin_font -- Starts a new Type3 font

SYNOPSIS

       #include <pslib.h>

       int PS_begin_font(PSDoc *psdoc, const char *fontname, int reserverd, double a, double b, double c, double d, double e, double f, const char
       *optlist)

DESCRIPTION

       PostScript supports various kinds of fonts. Type3 fonts are fonts whose glyphs are created with a subset of  regular  PostScript  commands.
       This function starts a new Type3 font embedded into the document which must be closed with PS_end_font. Each glyph is created with consecu-
       tive calls of PS_end_glyph and PS_end_glyph. Once the new font is created, it can be used like any other font loaded with PS_findfont.  The
       passed floating point numbers are used to set the font matrix. a and d are usually set to 0.001. The remaining numbers can be left zero.

       Each call of PS_begin_font must be accompanied by a call to PS_end_pattern(3).

       PS_begin_font has been introduced in version 0.4.0 of pslib.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns identifier of the font or zero in case of an error.  The identifier is a positiv number greater 0.

NAME

       PS_shading -- Create shading

SYNOPSIS

       #include <pslib.h>

       int PS_shading(PSDoc *psdoc, const char *shtype, float x0, float y0, float x1, float y1, float c1, float c2, float c3, float c4, const char
       *optlist)

DESCRIPTION

       This function creates a shading which can be used by PS_shfill(3) or PS_shading_pattern(3). The type of shading can be either  `radial'	or
       `axial'.  Each  shading	starts	with  the  current  fill color and ends with the given color values passed in the parameters c1 to c4 (see
       PS_setcolor(3)	     for their meaning). The coordinates x0, y0, x1, y1 are the start and end point of the shading.  If the shading is	of
       type `radial' the option list must also contain the parameters r0 and r1 with the radius of the start and end circle.

       The color of the shading can be in any color space except for `pattern'.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns the identifier of the shading or zero in case of an error.  The identifier is a positiv number.
