| Elements' Details |
Ascent
short Ascent;
- Description
- specifies the portion of a lower case character that
rises above the height of the character "x" of the font.
For example, the letters 'b', 'd', 'h', 'k' and 'l'
have an ascent unequal to 0.
The ascent is measured in pixels, thus the font metric is
device dependent.
|
|
Descent
short Descent;
- Description
- specifies the portion of a letter falling below the baseline.
For example, the letters 'g', 'p', and 'y'
have a descent unequal to 0.
The descent is measured in pixels, thus the font metric is
device dependent.
|
|
Leading
short Leading;
- Description
- specifies the vertical space between lines of this font;
it is also called internal linespacing.
The leading is measured in pixels, thus the font metric is
device dependent.
|
|
Slant
short Slant;
- Description
- specifies the slant of the characters (italic).
The slant is measured in degrees from 0 to 359.
|
|
FirstChar
char FirstChar;
- Description
- specifies the code of the first printable character in the font.
|
|
