Covered APIs

APIUsage notes
HasGPOSKerningReports whether the registered Unicode font exposes GPOS kerning lookups
GetGPOSPairAdjustmentReturns the signed advance adjustment for an ordered glyph pair and can also return placement-aware X/Y offsets through the overload
GetGPOSContextualKernRunReturns per-glyph contextual kern adjustments by resolving GPOS Type 7 and Type 8 positioning rules over a glyph run
HasGPOSVerticalKernReports whether the registered Unicode font exposes vertical kerning or vertical proportional adjustment lookups
GetGPOSVerticalKernReturns signed vertical YAdvance adjustment from vkrn or vpal lookups for an ordered glyph pair
GetGPOSMarkOffsetReturns Mark-to-Base placement offsets for attaching a mark glyph to a base glyph
GetGPOSMarkMarkOffsetReturns Mark-to-Mark placement offsets for stacking one mark glyph on another
HasGPOSCursiveReports whether the registered Unicode font exposes GPOS cursive attachment lookups
GetGPOSCursiveAnchorsReturns entry and exit cursive anchors for a glyph when the font supplies a cursive attachment rule
GetGPOSMarkToLigatureOffsetReturns Mark-to-Ligature placement offsets for attaching a mark to a specific ligature component
GetGPOSLigatureComponentCountReturns the number of mark-attachment components recorded for a ligature glyph so callers can choose a valid ComponentIndex before calling GetGPOSMarkToLigatureOffset
ApplyMarkToLigatureShapingRecords ligature component ownership so mark-to-ligature offsets can be applied during text emission
sfKerningEnables GPOS pair-kerning adjustments during left-to-right Unicode text emission
sfMarkPositioningEnables GPOS Mark-to-Base and Mark-to-Mark offsets for combining marks
sfMarkToLigatureEnables GPOS Mark-to-Ligature offsets for marks attached to individual ligature components
sfCursiveAttachmentEnables GPOS cursive entry/exit anchor alignment during Unicode text emission, including right-to-left Arabic runs shaped by sfArabicGSUB
sfVerticalKerningEnables GPOS vkrn and vpal vertical advance adjustment in the vertical text output path

 

Usage notes

Parno kerning vrne predznačene prilagoditve napredka in postavitve v emu z 1000 enotami. Kontekstni kerning razreši iskanja tipa 7 in tipa 8 čez niz glifov. Pozicioniranje oznak zajema sidra Mark-to-Base, Mark-to-Mark in Mark-to-Ligature. ApplyMarkToLigatureShaping pripravi podatke o komponentah ligature na ravni niza, ki jih uporablja sfMarkToLigature. Pripenjanje kurzive poravna izhodno sidro na enem glifu z vhodnim sidrom na naslednjem glifu, kar je najuporabnejše po izvorno arabskem oblikovanju GSUB, ki je ustvarilo fonstno specifične kontekstne identifikatorje glifov, ki nosijo ta sidra. Pot izpisa to uporabi samo, ko je ustrezna oblikovalna zastavica omogočena
