  • Method Details

    • equals

      boolean equals(Object o)
      Overrides:
      equals in class Object

    • hashCode

      int hashCode()
      Overrides:
      hashCode in class Object

    • isScalable

      boolean isScalable()
      Defines, whether the font identifier represents a scalable font type. Such fonts usually create one font metric object for each physical font, and apply the font size afterwards.
      Returns:
      true, if the font is scalable, false otherwise

    • getFontType

      FontType getFontType()
      Returns the general type of this font identifier. This is for debugging, not for the real world.
      Returns:
