Getting Font Information

pascal void GetFontName         (short familyID, Str255 theName);
pascal void GetFNum             (ConstStr255Param name, short *familyID);
pascal Boolean RealFont         (short fontNum, short size);

Using the Current, System, and Application Fonts

pascal short GetDefFontSize     (void);

                                 Point numer, Point denom, short *yMax,
                                 short *yMin, FixedPtr awArray,
                                 FixedPtr lsbArray, RectPtr boundsArray);

Enabling Fractional Glyph Widths

                                (Boolean outlinePreferred);
pascal Boolean GetOutlinePreferred
                                (void);
pascal Boolean IsOutline        (Point numer, Point denom);

Scaling Outline Fonts

                                (Boolean preserveGlyph);
pascal Boolean GetPreserveGlyph
                                (void);

Accessing Information About a Font
