man Gnome2::Print::Font::Constants () - constants for use with Gnom2::Print::Font

NAME

Gnome2::Print::Font::Constants - constants for use with Gnom2::Print::Font

SYNOPSIS

  use Gnome2::Print; # gets the actual Gnome2::Print::Font objects and methods

  use Gnome2::Print::Font::Constants; # load extra constants

DESCRIPTION

Similarily to Pango, in order to effectively use Gnome2::Print::Font you need a few constants that are not supplied by the type system or by other means.

This module exports all of those extra constants when you load it. They use the fully-prefixed names from the C documentation.

EXPORT

GnomeFontWeight is an enumeration, but it's not registered inside the Glib type system:

  GNOME_FONT_LIGHTEST
  GNOME_FONT_EXTRA_LIGHT
  GNOME_FONT_THIN
  GNOME_FONT_LIGHT
  GNOME_FONT_BOOK
  GNOME_FONT_REGULAR
  GNOME_FONT_MEDIUM
  GNOME_FONT_SEMI
  GNOME_FONT_DEMI
  GNOME_FONT_BOLD
  GNOME_FONT_HEAVY
  GNOME_FONT_EXTRABOLD
  GNOME_FONT_BLACK
  GNOME_FONT_EXTRABLACK
  GNOME_FONT_HEAVIEST

These weights are also available without importing this module, using Gnome2::Print::Font->weight, e.g.:

  Gnome2::Print::Font->bold;

BUGS

This module shouldn't exist, but some parts of the API just aren't clean.

This stuff is hardcoded directly from the headers of libgnomeprint 2.2.3
