FcFontSort(3)                                                                                  FcFontSort(3)



NAME
       FcFontSort - Return list of matching fonts

SYNOPSIS
       #include <fontconfig.h>

       FcFontSet  *  FcFontSort  (FcConfig  *config,  FcPattern  *p,  FcBool trim, FcCharSet **csp, FcResult
       *result);

DESCRIPTION
       Returns the list of fonts sorted by closeness to p.  If trim is FcTrue, elements in  the  list  which
       don't include Unicode coverage not provided by earlier elements in the list are elided.  The union of
       Unicode coverage of all of the fonts is returned in csp, if csp is not NULL.  This function should be
       called  only  after  FcConfigSubstitute and FcDefaultSubstitute have been called for p; otherwise the
       results will not be correct.

       The returned FcFontSet references FcPattern structures which may be shared by the return  value  from
       multiple  FcFontSort  calls,  applications  must  not modify these patterns.  Instead, they should be
       passed, along with p to FcFontRenderPrepare which combines them into a complete pattern.

       The FcFontSet returned by FcFontSort is destroyed by caling FcFontSetDestroy.

VERSION
       Fontconfig version 2.6.0
