GLYPHMETRICSFLOAT

The GLYPHMETRICSFLOAT structure contains information about the placement and orientation of a glyph in a character cell.

typedef struct _GLYPHMETRICSFLOAT { // gmf   
    FLOAT      gmfBlackBoxX; 
    FLOAT      gmfBlackBoxY; 
    POINTFLOAT gmfptGlyphOrigin; 
    FLOAT      gmfCellIncX; 
    FLOAT      gmfCellIncY; 
} GLYPHMETRICSFLOAT;
