The SetTextCharacterExtra function sets the amount of intercharacter spacing. This spacing is added to each character, including break characters, when it writes a line of text to the device context.
hdc
Identifies the device context.
nCharExtra
Specifies the amount of extra space (in logical units) to be added to each character. If the current mapping mode is not MM_TEXT, the nCharExtra parameter is transformed and rounded to the nearest pixel.
The return value specifies the amount of the previous intercharacter spacing.
