Hi,
When in an X application, we call (with 14 fields) :
XListFonts(serveur, "-*-*-*-*-*-*-0-0-*-*-*-0-*-*", 10000, &nbFonts);
we get scalable fonts with fields 7,8,12 at "0" like :
-bitstream-charter-medium-i-normal--0-0-75-75-p-0-iso8859-1
-dec-terminal-medium-r-normal--0-0-75-75-c-0-dec-dectech
but if we call :
XListFonts(serveur, "-*-*-*-*-*-*-0-*-*-*-*-*-*-*", 10000, &nbFonts);
we also get fonts with only field 7 at "0" like :
-bitstream-charter-bold-r-normal--0-120-100-100-p-0-iso8859-1
-adobe-new century schoolbook-bold-r-normal--0-120-100-100-p-0-iso10646-1
what about these fonts ?
It's told in doc that scalable fonts must have their fields 7, 8 and 12
at "0"
