ABCFLOAT Structure

The new home for Visual Studio documentation is Visual Studio 2017 Documentation on docs.microsoft.com.

The latest version of this topic can be found at ABCFLOAT Structure.

The ABCFLOAT structure contains the A, B, and C widths of a font character.

typedef struct _ABCFLOAT { /* abcf */  
    FLOAT abcfA;  
    FLOAT abcfB;  
    FLOAT abcfC;  
} ABCFLOAT;  

Parameters

abcfA
Specifies the A spacing of the character. The A spacing is the distance to add to the current position before drawing the character glyph.

abcfB
Specifies the B spacing of the character. The B spacing is the width of the drawn portion of the character glyph.

abcfC
Specifies the C spacing of the character. The C spacing is the distance to add to the current position to provide white space to the right of the character glyph.

The A, B, and C widths are measured along the base line of the font. The character increment (total width) of a character is the sum of the A, B, and C spaces. Either the A or the C space can be negative to indicate underhangs or overhangs.
