Arguments

downloader

Downloader

The Downloader object that contains either a zip file or a font file.

part

string

The string name identifying the font name in the zip file. This will be an empty string if the Downloader contains only one font file, or if you use the glyphTypeface signature.

glyphTypeface

Managed Equivalent

There is no managed equivalent.

Remarks

Passing a null value to the Downloader argument sets the Glyphs source to nothing, and does not render anything.

If an invalid or incomplete Downloader is passed to the SetSource (Glyphs) method, an ArgumentException is raised along with the control's error event.

If a Downloader contains a file that is not a TrueType or OpenType font, an ArgumentException is raised along with the control's error event.
