PFNGETINFO callback function (printoem.h)

Article
08/19/2022

The UNIFONTOBJ_GetInfo callback function is provided by the Unidrv driver so that rendering plug-ins can obtain font or glyph information.

Syntax

PFNGETINFO Pfngetinfo;

BOOL Pfngetinfo(
  _UNIFONTOBJ *unnamedParam1,
  DWORD unnamedParam2,
  PVOID unnamedParam3,
  DWORD unnamedParam4,
  PDWORD unnamedParam5
)
{...}

Parameters

unnamedParam1

Pointer to the UNIFONTOBJ structure received by the function that is making the callback to UNIFONTOBJ_GetInfo. Supplied by the caller.

unnamedParam2

Specifies the size, in bytes, of the buffer pointed to by pData. Supplied by the caller.

unnamedParam3

Pointer to a structure, as indicated in the following table. Supplied by the caller.

dwInfoID Value	pData Structure
UFO_GETINFO_FONTOBJ	GETINFO_FONTOBJ
UFO_GETINFO_GLYPHBITMAP	GETINFO_GLYPHBITMAP
UFO_GETINFO_GLYPHSTRING	GETINFO_GLYPHSTRING
UFO_GETINFO_GLYPHWIDTH	GETINFO_GLYPHWIDTH
UFO_GETINFO_MEMORY	GETINFO_MEMORY
UFO_GETINFO_STDVARIABLE	GETINFO_STDVAR

For more information, see the table in the Remarks section.

unnamedParam4

Specifies the type of structure pointed to by pData. Supplied by the caller. For more information, see the table in the Remarks section.

unnamedParam5

Pointer to a location that receives the minimum buffer size, in bytes, required to contain the structure identified by dwInfoID. Supplied by the caller.

Return value

Returns a BOOL value. If the operation succeeds, the function returns TRUE. Otherwise it returns FALSE.

Remarks

The UNIFONTOBJ_GetInfo callback function allows a rendering plug-in to call back into Unidrv to obtain font or glyph information from GDI, needed for handling customized font management operations.

A rendering plug-in receives the UNIFONTOBJ_GetInfo function's address in the UNIFONTOBJ structure that is passed to the font customization methods.

The type of information returned by the function is dependent on the input arguments. The caller supplies values for dwInfoID, pData, and dwDataSize to indicate the type of information wanted. The following table summarizes the types of information returned. For more information, see the structure descriptions.

pData Structure	Returned Information
GETINFO_FONTOBJ	A FONTOBJ structure describing the current font.
GETINFO_GLYPHBITMAP	A single glyph bitmap.
GETINFO_GLYPHSTRING	An array of glyph specifiers in a specified format.
GETINFO_GLYPHWIDTH	Total width of a set of glyphs.
GETINFO_MEMORY	Amount of available printer memory remaining.
GETINFO_STDVAR	The current value for one or more of Unidrv's standard variables.

If the buffer described by pData and dwDataSize is too small to receive the structure indicated by dwInfoID, the function loads the required buffer size into the location pointed by pcbNeeded and returns FALSE.
