NAME
NewScaledDiskFont -- Create a DiskFont scaled from another. (V36)
SYNOPSIS
header = NewScaledDiskFont(srcFont, destTextAttr)
D0 A0 A1
struct DiskFontHeader *NewScaledDiskFont( struct TextFont *,
struct TTextAttr * );
INPUTS
srcFont - the font from which the scaled font is to be
constructed.
destTextAttr - the desired attributes for the new scaled
font. This may be a structure of type TextAttr or
TTextAttr.
RESULT
header - a pointer to a DiskFontHeader structure. This is not
being managed by the diskfont.library, however.
NOTES
o This function may use the blitter.
o Fonts containing characters that render wholly outside
the character advance cell are currently not scalable.
o The font, and memory allocated for the scaled font can
can be freed by calling StripFont() on the font,
and then calling UnLoadSeg() on the segment created
by this function.
Both the TextFont structure, and segment pointer are contained
within the DiskFontHeader struct. The DiskFontHeader structure
will also be freed as part of the UnLoadSeg() call.
StripFont() is a new graphics.library call as of V36.
