The ABCFLOAT structure contains the A, B, and C widths of a font character.

typedef struct _ABCFLOAT { // abcf 
    FLOAT   abcfA; 
    FLOAT   abcfB; 
    FLOAT   abcfC; 
} ABCFLOAT; 
 

Members

abcfA

Specifies the "A" spacing of the character. The "A" spacing is the distance to add to the current position before drawing the character glyph.

abcfB

Specifies the "B" spacing of the character. The "B" spacing is the width of the drawn portion of the character glyph.

abcfC

Specifies the "C" spacing of the character. The "C" spacing is the distance to add to the current position to provide white space to the right of the character glyph.

Remarks

The A, B, and C widths are measured along the base line of the font.

The character increment (total width) of a character is the sum of the "A," "B," and "C" spaces. Either the "A" or the "C" space can be negative to indicate underhangs or overhangs.
