NAME
FcFileScan - scan a font file
SYNOPSIS
#include <fontconfig.h>
FcBool FcFileScan (FcFontSet *set, FcStrSet *dirs, FcFileCache *cache, FcBlanks *blanks, const FcChar8 *file, FcBool force);
DESCRIPTION
Scans a single file and adds all fonts found to set. If force is FcTrue, then the file is scanned even if associated information is found
in cache. If file is a directory, it is added to dirs. Whether fonts are found depends on fontconfig policy as well as the current config-
uration. Internally, fontconfig will ignore BDF and PCF fonts which are not in Unicode (or the effectively equivalent ISO Latin-1) encoding
as those are not usable by Unicode-based applications. The configuration can ignore fonts based on filename or contents of the font file
itself. Returns FcFalse if any of the fonts cannot be added (due to allocation failure). Otherwise returns FcTrue.
