FontFace

class FontFace(**properties: Any)

Superclasses: Object

A PangoFontFace is used to represent a group of fonts with the same family, slant, weight, and width, but varying sizes.

Methods

class FontFace

describe() → FontDescription

Returns a font description that matches the face.

The resulting font description will have the family, style, variant, weight and stretch of the face, but its size field will be unset.

do_describe(self) → FontDescription

do_get_face_name(self) → str

do_get_family(self) → FontFamily

do_is_synthesized(self) → bool

do_list_sizes(self) → list[int] | None

get_face_name() → str

Gets a name representing the style of this face.

Note that a font family may contain multiple faces with the same name (e.g. a variable and a non-variable face for the same style).

get_family() → FontFamily

Gets the PangoFontFamily that face belongs to.

Added in version 1.46.

is_synthesized() → bool

Returns whether a PangoFontFace is synthesized.

This will be the case if the underlying font rendering engine creates this face from another face, by shearing, emboldening, lightening or modifying it in some other way.

Added in version 1.18.

list_sizes() → list[int] | None

List the available sizes for a font.

This is only applicable to bitmap fonts. For scalable fonts, stores None at the location pointed to by sizes and 0 at the location pointed to by n_sizes. The sizes returned are in Pango units and are sorted in ascending order.

Added in version 1.4.
