PANDA_GETFONTOBJ(3)                                        PANDA_GETFONTOBJ(3)


NAME

       panda_getfontobj - get the object that the named font is stored in


SYNOPSIS

        #include<panda/constants.h>
        #include<panda/functions.h>
        void panda_getfontobj (panda_pdf *output, char *fontident);


DESCRIPTION

       <command>PANDA INTERNAL</command>. This function is used to map a font
       identifier handed to <command>Panda</command> by a user to the object
       that actually stores the font requested. This is because the PDF
       specification actually wants a reference to this object, instead of
       merely the name of the font.


RETURNS

       The font object


EXAMPLE

        #include<panda/constants.h>
        #include<panda/functions.h>
        panda_pdf *output;
        panda_init();
        output = panda_open("output.pdf", "w");
        fonthandle = panda_createfont (output, "Helventica", 3, "MacRomanEncoding");
        printf("The font was stored in object number %d\n",
        (panda_getfont (output, fonthandle))->number);
