End Type

Description & Usage

The FONTSIGNATURE structure holds the font signature of a font. The font signature is composed of a 128-bit Unicode subset bitfield (USB) and a 64-bit code-page bitfield (CPB). Both of these values are split into multi-element arrays of 32-bit integers. For each array, the lowest-order dword appears as the first array element, and the highest-order dword appears as the last array element.

Visual Basic-Specific Issues

None.

Data Members

fsUsb

A Unicode subset bitfield (USB), a 128-bit value, identifying up to 126 Unicode subranges. Each bit except the two most significant ones identify one of 126 possibly Unicode subranges, according to the ISO 10646 standard.

fsCsb

A code-page bitfield (CPB), a 64-bit value, identifying a specific character set or code page. Windows code pages are in the low-order dword; non-Windows code pages are in the high-order dword.
