Methods

pango.Fontset.get_font

    def get_font(wc)
wc :a unicode character
Returns :a pango.Font.

The get_font() method returns the pango.Font in the fontset that contains the best glyph for the unicode character specified by wc.

pango.Fontset.get_metrics

    def get_metrics()
Returns :a pango.FontMetrics object.

The get_metrics() method returns a pango.FontMetrics object that contains the overall metric information for the fonts in the fontset.

pango.Fontset.foreach

    def foreach(func, data=None)
func :a callback function
data :user data to pass to func

This method is available in PyGTK 2.4 and above.

The foreach() method invokes the function specified by func on each pango.Font of the font set passing it the optional user data specified by data. The signature of func is:

  def func(fontset, font, user_data)

where fontset is the pango.Fontset containing the pango.Font font and user_data is data
