The only other mechanism provided to applications for -changing the running configuration is to add fonts and directories to the -list of application-provided font files. - </P -><P ->The intent is to make font configurations relatively static, and shared by -as many applications as possible.

The intent is to permit applications to pick and -choose appropriate functionality from the library instead of forcing them to -choose between this library and a private configuration mechanism.

The closest matching -font is selected. This ensures that a font will always be returned, but -doesn't ensure that it is anything like the requested pattern. - </P -><P -> -Font matching starts with an application constructed pattern. The desired -attributes of the resulting font are collected together in a pattern. Each -property of the pattern can contain one or more values; these are listed in -priority order; matches earlier in the list are considered "closer" than -matches later in the list. - </P -><P ->The initial pattern is modified by applying the list of editing instructions -specific to patterns found in the configuration; each consists of a match -predicate and a set of editing operations. They are executed in the order -they appeared in the configuration. Each match causes the associated -sequence of editing operations to be applied. - </P -><P ->After the pattern has been edited, a sequence of default substitutions are -performed to canonicalize the set of available properties; this avoids the -need for the lower layers to constantly provide default values for various -font properties during rendering. - </P -><P ->The canonical font pattern is finally matched against all available fonts. -The distance from the pattern to the font is measured for each of several -properties: foundry, charset, family, lang, spacing, pixelsize, style, -slant, weight, antialias, rasterizer and outline. This list is in priority -order -- results of comparing earlier elements of this list weigh more -heavily than later elements. - </P -><P ->There is one special case to this rule; family names are split into two -bindings; strong and weak. Strong family names are given greater precedence -in the match than lang elements while weak family names are given lower -precedence than lang elements. This permits the document language to drive -font selection when any document specified font is unavailable. - </P -><P ->The pattern representing that font is augmented to include any properties -found in the pattern but not found in the font itself; this permits the -application to pass rendering instructions or any other data through the -matching system. Finally, the list of editing instructions specific to -fonts found in the configuration are applied to the pattern. This modified -pattern is returned to the application. - </P -><P ->The return value contains sufficient information to locate and rasterize the -font, including the file name, pixel size and other rendering data. As -none of the information involved pertains to the FreeType library, -applications are free to use any rasterization engine or even to take -the identified font file and access it directly. - </P -><P ->The match/edit sequences in the configuration are performed in two passes -because there are essentially two different operations necessary -- the -first is to modify how fonts are selected; aliasing families and adding -suitable defaults. The second is to modify how the selected fonts are -rasterized. Those must apply to the selected font, not the original pattern -as false matches will often occur. - </P -></DIV -><DIV -CLASS="REFSECT2" -><A -NAME="AEN36" -></A -><H3 ->Font Names</H3 -><P ->Fontconfig provides a textual representation for patterns that the library -can both accept and generate.
