3.2.3 TTF_OpenFontIndex

TTF_Font *TTF_OpenFontIndex(const char *file, int ptsize, long index)

file

File name to load font from.

ptsize

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

index

choose a font face from a file containing multiple font faces. The first face is always index 0.

Load file, face index, for use as a font, at ptsize size. This is actually TTF_OpenFontIndexRW(SDL_RWFromFile(file), ptsize, index), but checks that the RWops it creates is not NULL. 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, face 0, at size 16 into font TTF_Font *font; font=TTF_OpenFontIndex("font.ttf", 16, 0); if(!font) { printf("TTF_OpenFontIndex: %s\n", TTF_GetError()); // handle error }
