Synopsis¶
This section contains the declaration of CID-keyed font-specific functions.
FT_Get_CID_Registry_Ordering_Supplement¶
Defined in FT_CID_H (freetype/ftcid.h).
  FT_EXPORT( FT_Error )
  FT_Get_CID_Registry_Ordering_Supplement( FT_Face       face,
                                           const char*  *registry,
                                           const char*  *ordering,
                                           FT_Int       *supplement );
Retrieve the Registry/Ordering/Supplement triple (also known as the "R/O/S") from a CID-keyed font.
input
| face | A handle to the input face. | 
output
| registry | The registry, as a C string, owned by the face. | 
| ordering | The ordering, as a C string, owned by the face. | 
| supplement | The supplement. | 
return
FreeType error code. 0 means success.
note
This function only works with CID faces, returning an error otherwise.

2.3.6
FT_Get_CID_Is_Internally_CID_Keyed¶
Defined in FT_CID_H (freetype/ftcid.h).
Retrieve the type of the input face, CID keyed or not. In contrast to the FT_IS_CID_KEYED macro this function returns successfully also for CID-keyed fonts in an SFNT wrapper.
input
| face | A handle to the input face. | 
output
| is_cid | The type of the face as an  | 
return
FreeType error code. 0 means success.
note
This function only works with CID faces and OpenType fonts, returning an error otherwise.

2.3.9
FT_Get_CID_From_Glyph_Index¶
Defined in FT_CID_H (freetype/ftcid.h).
  FT_EXPORT( FT_Error )
  FT_Get_CID_From_Glyph_Index( FT_Face   face,
                               FT_UInt   glyph_index,
                               FT_UInt  *cid );
Retrieve the CID of the input glyph index.
input
| face | A handle to the input face. | 
| glyph_index | The input glyph index. | 
output
| cid | The CID as an  | 
return
FreeType error code. 0 means success.
note
This function only works with CID faces and OpenType fonts, returning an error otherwise.
