TFontData.CharSet variable
The character set for a Font as an Integer value.
Declaration
CharSet: TFontCharSetDescription
CharSet is a
TFontCharSet member which stores an Integer
identifier for a font character set. Its value identifies the character set or
encoding supported in the font.
The actual value is specific to the Operating System and/or widgetset for the
application. For the Windows platform, it corresponds to the value in TLogFont
as retrieved from the Win32 GDI LogFont routine. Other platforms
and widgetsets rely on the mechanism native to the interface like: X-Fonts,
device contexts, or whatever API mechanism the MacOS developers currently have
in place. The native values are translated to to the value represented in the
member as an Integer.
