AverageWidth Int32

Gets the average width of glyphs in a font.

BoundingBox Int32[]

Gets the font's bounding box.

Remarks

Gets the distance between the baseline and the approximate height of uppercase letters.

Descent Int32

Specifies the maximum distance characters in this font extend below the base line. This is the typographic descent for the font.

EmSquare Int32

Specifies the number of logical units defining the x- or y-dimension of the em square for this font. The common value for EmSquare is 2048.

Remarks

The number of units in the x- and y-directions are always the same for an em square.)

FaceName String

Retrieves the typeface name of the font that is selected into the device context supplied to the GdiFontMetrics constructor.
