ScriptGetGlyphABCWidth

The ScriptGetGlyphABCWidth function returns the ABC width of a given glyph.

HRESULT WINAPI ScriptGetGlyphABCWidth(
  HDC hdc, 
  SCRIPT_CACHE *psc,
  WORD wGlyph,
  ABC *pABC,
);

Parameters

wGlyph

Return Values

If the ABC width of the glyph is returned, the function returns S_OK.

If the font or system does not support glyph indices, the function returns E_HANDLE. And if any other unrecoverable error is encountered, it is also returned as HRESULT.
