The font options specify how fonts should be rendered. Most of the time the font options implied by a surface are just right and do not need any changes, but for pixel-based targets tweaking font options may result in superior output on a particular display.
cairo_font_options_t *
cairo_font_options_create (void
);
Allocates a new font options object with all options initialized to default values.
a newly allocated cairo_font_options_t. Free with
cairo_font_options_destroy()
. This function always returns a
valid pointer; if memory cannot be allocated, then a special
error object is returned where all operations on the object do nothing.
You can check for this with cairo_font_options_status()
.

void cairo_font_options_set_color_palette (cairo_font_options_t *options
,unsigned int palette_index
);
Sets the OpenType font color palette for the font options
object. OpenType color fonts with a CPAL table may contain multiple
palettes. The default color palette index is CAIRO_COLOR_PALETTE_DEFAULT
.
If palette_index
is invalid, the default palette is used.
Individual colors within the palette may be overriden with
cairo_font_options_set_custom_palette_color()
.
Since: 1.18
unsigned int
cairo_font_options_get_color_palette (const cairo_font_options_t *options

,unsigned int index
,double red
,double green
,double blue
,double alpha
);
Sets a custom palette color for the font options object. This
overrides the palette color at the specified color index. This override is
independent of the selected palette index and will remain in place
even if cairo_font_options_set_color_palette()
is called to change
the palette index.
It is only possible to override color indexes already in the font palette.

typedef struct _cairo_font_options cairo_font_options_t;
An opaque structure holding all options that are used when rendering fonts.
Individual features of a cairo_font_options_t can be set or
accessed using functions named
cairo_font_options_set_feature_name()
and
cairo_font_options_get_feature_name()
, like
cairo_font_options_set_antialias()
and
cairo_font_options_get_antialias()
.
New features may be added to a cairo_font_options_t in the
future. For this reason, cairo_font_options_copy()
,
cairo_font_options_equal()
, cairo_font_options_merge()
, and
cairo_font_options_hash()
should be used to copy, check
for equality, merge, or compute a hash value of
cairo_font_options_t objects.

Specifies the type of hinting to do on font outlines. Hinting is the process of fitting outlines to the pixel grid in order to improve the appearance of the result. Since hinting outlines involves distorting them, it also reduces the faithfulness to the original outline shapes. Not all of the outline hinting styles are supported by all font backends.
New entries may be added in future versions.
Use the default hint style for font backend and target device, since 1.0 |
||
Do not hint outlines, since 1.0 |
||
Hint outlines slightly to improve contrast while retaining good fidelity to the original shapes, since 1.0 |
||
Hint outlines with medium strength giving a compromise between fidelity to the original shapes and contrast, since 1.0 |
||
Hint outlines to maximize contrast, since 1.0 |
Since: 1.0
Specifies whether to hint font metrics; hinting font metrics means quantizing them so that they are integer values in device space. Doing this improves the consistency of letter and line spacing, however it also means that text will be laid out differently at different zoom factors.
Since: 1.0
Specifies if color fonts are to be rendered using the color glyphs or outline glyphs. Glyphs that do not have a color presentation, and non-color fonts are not affected by this font option.
Use the default color mode for font backend and target device, since 1.18. |
||
Disable rendering color glyphs. Glyphs are always rendered as outline glyphs, since 1.18. |
||
Enable rendering color glyphs. If the font contains a color presentation for a glyph, and when supported by the font backend, the glyph will be rendered in color, since 1.18. |
