Question about FontData [message #436091]

Hello,

I am wondering in what cases the OS will return an array of FontData
objects bigger than 1?

In my application I am not dealing with the case that font.getFontData()
returns more than one FontData object. I am not sure if this is the
correct handling for win32, gtk, motif and carbon.

Thanks,
Ben

This can happen on Motif only.

Ok, so how to handle it? Should I apply my fontdata changes to each object
in the array or is it sufficient for the first one?

Your changes should be applied to each FontData in the array, since any (or
all) of them could be used depending on the characters that are to be
rendered.
