The function
find-best-font
returns the best font for
pane
which matches
fdesc
. When there alternative fonts available the choice of best font is operating system dependent.
When
fdesc
contains the attribute
:stock
with value
:system-font
or
:system-fixed-font
, the lookup will always find a stock font.
By default
find-best-font
looks only for Truetype fonts in LispWorks 6.1 and later.
With the default
drawing-mode
:quality
only Truetype fonts are supported. Non-Truetype fonts are supported only when using
drawing-mode
:compatible
.
To get the LispWorks 6.0 behavior where non-Truetype fonts are also found, pass
:type :wild
to make-font-description.
