TTF_Font *TTF_OpenFont(const char *file, int ptsize)

file

File name to load font from.

ptsize

Point size (based on 72DPI) to load font as. This basically translates to pixel height.

Load file for use as a font, at ptsize size. This is actually TTF_OpenFontIndex(file, ptsize, 0). This can load TTF and FON files.

Returns: a pointer to the font as a TTF_Font. NULL is returned on errors.

// load font.ttf at size 16 into font TTF_Font *font; font=TTF_OpenFont("font.ttf", 16); if(!font) { printf("TTF_OpenFont: %s\n", TTF_GetError()); // handle error }
