Public Function EnumFontFamExProc (ByVal lpelfe As Long, ByVal lpntme As Long, ByVal FontType As Long, ByVal lParam As Long) As Long   ' application-specific code goes here End Function

Description & Usage

The EnumFontFamExProc callback function processes each font enumerated by EnumFontFamiliesEx. The function receives a large amount of information describing both the logical font attributes as well as its metrics. Information describing TrueType fonts is received by the function in a slightly different format than non-TrueType font information. This function does not necessarily have to be named EnumFontFamExProc -- that is simply the name given to it in discussions about the Windows API.

Return Value

If the function returns 0, EnumFontFamiliesEx immediately stops enumerating fonts. If the function returns a non-zero value, EnumFontFamiliesEx continues enumerating fonts as long as another one can be found.

Visual Basic-Specific Issues

Like all callback functions, EnumFontFamExProc must be declared Public and be defined in a module.

Parameters

lpelfe

A pointer to an ENUMLOGFONTEX structure describing the logical attributes of the font.

lpntme

If the font is a TrueType font, this is a pointer to a NEWTEXTMETRICEX structure. If the font is not a TrueType font, this is a pointer to a TEXTMETRIC structure. Either structure describes the text metrics of the font.

FontType

A combination of the following flags (although usually only one is used) identifying the type of font:

DEVICE_FONTTYPE

The font is a device font.

RASTER_FONTTYPE

The font is a raster font.

TRUETYPE_FONTTYPE

The font is a TrueType font.

lParam

Additional data specified by EnumFontFamiliesEx.

Constant Definitions

Const DEVICE_FONTTYPE = &H2 Const RASTER_FONTTYPE = &H1 Const TRUETYPE_FONTTYPE = &H4
