Declaration [src]

pango_font_map_add_font_file (
  PangoFontMap* fontmap,
  const char* filename,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Loads a font file with one or more fonts into the PangoFontMap.

The added fonts will take precedence over preexisting fonts with the same name.

Available since: 1.56

Parameters

filename

Type: const char*

Path to the font file.

The data is owned by the caller of the method.
The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.

The argument can be NULL.
If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.
The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the method if there are no errors.
In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

Return value

Type: gboolean

True if the font file is successfully loaded into the fontmap, false if an error occurred.
