Pallavi,
I worked on Solaris/Linux but, I like HP-UX more. I'd vote for that. However, your situation is not your choice.
To answer your question, Solaris/Linux, it actually depends on how much money you have and how big your requirements are. If you have enough, better stay with HP-UX not that its better than others, just that you need not confuse.
Discuss with management and application teams. See how things work with both and read articles. You cannot go migrate an operating system since someone posts on a forum. Since, this is not a break-fix.
Most importantly, as methyl stated, TEST IT and see how it behaves on your applications. That would help you the most.
All the best!

extract_font_range(3alleg4) Allegro manual extract_font_range(3alleg4)
NAME
extract_font_range - Extracts a range of characters from a font. Allegro game programming library.
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h>
FONT *extract_font_range(FONT *f, int begin, int end)
DESCRIPTION
This function extracts a character range from a font and returns a new font that contains only the range of characters selected by this
function. You can pass -1 for either the lower or upper bound if you want to select all characters from the start or to the end of the
font. Example:
FONT *myfont;
FONT *capitals;
FONT *fontcopy;
...
/* Create a font of only capital letters */
capitals = extract_font_range(myfont, 'A', 'Z');
/* Create a copy of the font */
fontcopy = extract_font_range(myfont, -1, -1);
...
destroy_font(capitals);
destroy_font(fontcopy);
RETURN VALUE
Returns a pointer to the new font or NULL on error. Remember that you are responsible for destroying the font when you are finished with it
to avoid memory leaks.
