Members

  • otmSize
    Specifies the size, in bytes, of the OUTLINETEXTMETRICW structure.
  • otmTextMetrics
    Specifies a TEXTMETRIC structure containing further information about the font.
  • otmFiller
    Specifies a value that causes the structure to be byte-aligned.
  • otmPanoseNumber
    Specifies the PANOSE number for this font.
  • otmfsSelection
    Specifies the nature of the font pattern. This member can be a combination of the following bits.

  • otmfsType
    Specifies whether the font is licensed. Licensed fonts must not be modified or exchanged. If bit 1 is set, the font may not be embedded in a document. If bit 1 is clear, the font can be embedded. If bit 2 is set, the embedding is read-only.
  • otmsCharSlopeRise
    Specifies the slope of the cursor. This value is 1 if the slope is vertical. Applications can use this value and the value of the otmsCharSlopeRun member to create an italic cursor that has the same slope as the main italic angle (specified by the otmItalicAngle member).
  • otmsCharSlopeRun
    Specifies the slope of the cursor. This value is zero if the slope is vertical. Applications can use this value and the value of the otmsCharSlopeRise member to create an italic cursor that has the same slope as the main italic angle (specified by the otmItalicAngle member).
  • otmItalicAngle
    Specifies the main italic angle of the font, in tenths of a degree counterclockwise from vertical. Regular (Roman) fonts have a value of zero. Italic fonts typically have a negative italic angle (that is, they lean to the right).
  • otmEMSquare
    Specifies the number of logical units defining the x- or y-dimension of the em square for this font. (The number of units in the x- and y-directions are always the same for an em square.)
  • otmAscent
    Specifies the maximum distance characters in this font extend above the base line. This is the typographic ascent for the font.
  • otmDescent
    Specifies the maximum distance characters in this font extend below the base line. This is the typographic descent for the font.
  • otmLineGap
    Specifies typographic line spacing.
  • otmsCapEmHeight
    Not supported.
  • otmsXHeight
    Not supported.
  • otmrcFontBox
    Specifies the bounding box for the font.
  • otmMacAscent
    Specifies the maximum distance characters in this font extend above the base line for the Macintosh computer.
  • otmMacDescent
    Specifies the maximum distance characters in this font extend below the base line for the Macintosh computer.
  • otmMacLineGap
    Specifies line-spacing information for the Macintosh computer.
  • otmusMinimumPPEM
    Specifies the smallest recommended size for this font, in pixels per em-square.
  • otmptSubscriptSize
    Specifies the recommended horizontal and vertical size for subscripts in this font.
  • otmptSubscriptOffset
    Specifies the recommended horizontal and vertical offset for subscripts in this font. The subscript offset is measured from the character origin to the origin of the subscript character.
  • otmptSuperscriptSize
    Specifies the recommended horizontal and vertical size for superscripts in this font.
  • otmptSuperscriptOffset
    Specifies the recommended horizontal and vertical offset for superscripts in this font. The superscript offset is measured from the character base line to the base line of the superscript character.
  • otmsStrikeoutSize
    Specifies the width of the strikeout stroke for this font. Typically, this is the width of the em dash for the font.
  • otmsStrikeoutPosition
    Specifies the position of the strikeout stroke relative to the base line for this font. Positive values are above the base line and negative values are below.
  • otmsUnderscoreSize
    Specifies the thickness of the underscore character for this font.
  • otmsUnderscorePosition
    Specifies the position of the underscore character for this font.
  • otmpFamilyName
    Specifies the offset from the beginning of the structure to a string specifying the family name for the font.
  • otmpFaceName
    Specifies the offset from the beginning of the structure to a string specifying the typeface name for the font. (This typeface name corresponds to the name specified in the LOGFONT structure.)
  • otmpStyleName
    Specifies the offset from the beginning of the structure to a string specifying the style name for the font.
  • otmpFullName
    Specifies the offset from the beginning of the structure to a string specifying the full name for the font. This name is unique for the font and often contains a version number or other identifying information.

Remarks

The sizes returned in OUTLINETEXTMETRICW are specified in logical units; that is, they depend on the current mapping mode of the specified display context.

Note, OUTLINETEXTMETRICW is defined using the current pack setting. To avoid problems, make sure that the application is built using the platform's default packing.
