39.7. fm 字体管理器 interface

Deprecated since version 2.6: The fm module has been removed in Python 3.

This module provides access to the IRIS 字体管理器 library. It is available only on Silicon Graphics machines. See also: 4Sight User’s Guide , section 1, chapter 5: “Using the IRIS Font Manager.”

This is not yet a full interface to the IRIS Font Manager. Among the unsupported features are: matrix operations; cache operations; character operations (use string operations instead); some details of font info; individual glyph metrics; and printer matching.

It supports the following operations:

fm. init ( )

Initialization function. Calls fminit() . It is normally not necessary to call this function, since it is called automatically the first time the fm module is imported.

fm. findfont ( fontname )

Return a font handle object. Calls fmfindfont(fontname) .

fm. enumerate ( )

Returns a list of available font names. This is an interface to fmenumerate() .

fm. prstr ( string )

Render a string using the current font (see the setfont() font handle method below). Calls fmprstr(string) .

fm. setpath ( string )

Sets the font search path. Calls fmsetpath(string) . (XXX Does not work!?!)

fm. fontpath ( )

Returns the current font search path.

Font handle objects support the following operations:

font handle.scalefont(factor)

Returns a handle for a scaled version of this font. Calls fmscalefont(fh, factor) .

font handle.setfont()

Makes this font the current font. Note: the effect is undone silently when the font handle object is deleted. Calls fmsetfont(fh) .

font handle.getfontname()

Returns this font’s name. Calls fmgetfontname(fh) .

font handle.getcomment()

Returns the comment string associated with this font. Raises an exception if there is none. Calls fmgetcomment(fh) .

font handle.getfontinfo()

Returns a tuple giving some pertinent data about this font. This is an interface to fmgetfontinfo() . The returned tuple contains the following numbers: (printermatched, fixed_width, xorig, yorig, xsize, ysize, height, nglyphs) .

font handle.getstrwidth(string)

Returns the width, in pixels, of string when drawn in this font. Calls fmgetstrwidth(fh, string) .
