NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

 #include&lt;panda/constants.h&gt;
 #include&lt;panda/functions.h&gt;
 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&lt;panda/constants.h&gt;
 #include&lt;panda/functions.h&gt;
 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);
