GetTextRise
Syntax:
double pdfGetTextRise(
const PPDF* IPDF) // Instance pointer
The function returns the current text rise used to output text. Text rise specifies the distance, in
unscaled text space units, to move the baseline up or down from its default location. Positive values
of text rise move the baseline up. Adjustments to the baseline are useful for drawing superscripts or
subscripts. The default location of the baseline can be restored by setting the text rise to 0. The figure
below illustrates the effect of the text rise. Text rise always applies to the vertical coordinate in text
space. See also SetTextRise().
The text moves around the baseline.
Default value = 0
GetTextScaling
Syntax:
double pdfGetTextScaling(
const PPDF* IPDF) // Instance pointer
The function returns the current value of horizontal text scaling. The scaling value adjusts the width
of glyphs by stretching or compressing them in the horizontal direction. Its value is specified as a
percentage of the normal width of the glyphs, with 100 being the normal width. See also
SetTextScaling().
