doc::lua-oocairo-fontface(3) Lua OO Cairo binding doc::lua-oocairo-fontface(3) Name lua-oocairo-fontface - Unscaled font face object Introduction Cairo font face objects are returned by the "get_font_face" method on context objects (see lua-oocairo-context(3)). They represent a font selection, but not including the scaling used to create a font of a particular size. See lua-oocairo-scaledfont(3) for details about fonts at a particular size, which can be created by scaling one of these font face objects. Font face objects can be compared with the "==" operator. This will compare the identity of the objects, so different Lua objects which refer to the same "cairo_font_face_t" will compare as equal. Methods Font face objects provide the following methods. Some of these will not be defined if the module was compiled against a version of Cairo too old to support them. fontface:get_family () Returns a string containing the name of the family selected with the "select_font_face" method. Throws an exception if called on a font face which wasn't created with the aXXtoyaXX API. Only available with Cairo 1.8 or better. fontface:get_slant () Returns the slant style of the font face created with the toy API, or throws an exception for other font faces. The return value will be a string, with one of the values accepted by the "select_font_face" method. Only available with Cairo 1.8 or better. fontface:get_type () Returns a string indicating what backend library handles this font. The return value will be one of the following: toy Created using Cairo's aXXtoyaXX font API, probably selected with the "select_font_face" method. ft Created with the FreeType API. win32 A Windows native font. quartz A MacOS X native font. user A font created with custom code. fontface:get_weight () Returns the weight of the font face created with the toy API, or throws an exception for other font faces. The return value will be a string, with one of the values accepted by the "select_font_face" method. Only available with Cairo 1.8 or better. 1.4 2011-05-18 doc::lua-oocairo-fontface(3)
