ScriptPlaceOpenType function (usp10.h)
Generates glyphs and visual attributes for a Unicode run with OpenType information from the output of ScriptShapeOpenType.
Syntax
HRESULT ScriptPlaceOpenType(

);
Parameters
[in, optional] hdc
Handle to the device context. For more information, see Caching.
[in, out] psc
Pointer to a SCRIPT_CACHE structure identifying the script cache.
[in, out] psa
Pointer to a SCRIPT_ANALYSIS structure obtained from a previous call to ScriptItemizeOpenType. This structures identifies the shaping engine that governs the generated list of glyphs and their associated widths, and x and y placement offsets.
Alternatively, the application can set this parameter to NULL to receive unfiltered results.
[in] tagScript
An OPENTYPE_TAG structure containing the OpenType script tag for the writing system to use.
[in] tagLangSys
An OPENTYPE_TAG structure containing the OpenType language tag for the writing system.
[in, optional] rcRangeChars
Array of the number of characters in each range. The number of members is indicated in the cRanges parameter. The total of values should equal the value of cChars.
[in, optional] rpRangeProperties
Array of TEXTRANGE_PROPERTIES structures defining properties for each range. The number of elements is defined by the cRanges parameter.
[in] cRanges
The number of OpenType feature ranges.
[in] pwcChars
Pointer to an array of Unicode characters containing the run. The number of elements is defined by the cRanges parameter.
[in] pwLogClust
Pointer to an array of logical cluster information. Each element in the array corresponds to a character in the array defined by pwcChars. The value of each element is the offset from the first glyph in the run to the first glyph in the cluster containing the corresponding character. Note that, when the fRTL member of the SCRIPT_ANALYSIS structure is set to TRUE, the elements in pwLogClust decrease as the array is read.
[in] pCharProps
Pointer to an array of character property values in the Unicode run.
[in] cChars
Number of characters in the Unicode run.
[in] pwGlyphs
Pointer to a glyph buffer obtained from an earlier call to the ScriptShapeOpenType function.
[in] pGlyphProps
Pointer to an array of attributes for each of the glyphs to retrieve. The number of values equals the value of cGlyphs. Since there is one glyph property per glyph, this parameter has the number of elements indicated by cGlyphs.
[in] cGlyphs
Count of glyphs in a glyph array buffer.
[out] piAdvance
Pointer to an array, of length indicated by cGlyphs, in which this function retrieves advance width information.
[out] pGoffset
Pointer to an array of GOFFSET structures in which this structure retrieves the x and y offsets of combining glyphs. This array must be of length indicated by cGlyphs.
[out, optional] pABC
Pointer to an ABC structure in which this function retrieves the ABC width for the entire run.
Return value
Returns 0 if successful. The function returns a nonzero HRESULT value if it does not succeed. In all error cases, the output values are undefined. The application can test the return value with the SUCCEEDED and FAILED macros.
The function returns E_OUTOFMEMORY if the output buffer length indicated by cGlyphs is too small. The application can try calling again with larger buffers.
The function returns E_PENDING if the script cache specified by the psc parameter does not contain enough information to place the glyphs, and the hdc parameter is passed as NULL so that the function is unable to complete the placement process. The application should set up a correct device context for the run, and call this function again with the appropriate value in hdc and with all other parameters the same.
Remarks
This function is preferred over the older ScriptPlace function. Some advantages of ScriptPlaceOpenType include the following:
- Parameters directly correspond to OpenType tags in font layout tables.
- Parameters define features applied to each character. Input is divided into ranges, and each range has OpenType properties associated with it.
All arrays are in visual order unless the fLogicalOrder member is set in the SCRIPT_ANALYSIS structure indicated by the psa parameter.
