48 /** A Pango::Context stores global information used to control the itemization process.
49 * You can retrieve a Pango::Context object with Gtk::Widget::create_pango_context() or
50 * Gtk::Widget::get_pango_context(). If you don't use gtkmm call some c function of the
51 * pango backend you intend to use and create a wrapper for the returned context,
52 * e.g. Glib::wrap(pango_x_get_context()).
54 * Creating a Pango::Context object is the starting point of every rendering process.
55 * You can either use it to create a high level Pango::Layout object which does all
56 * the hard work for you by passing it into
57 * Pango::Layout::create() or to generate glyph strings from character strings with
58 * the help of itemize() and Pango::Item::shape() subsequently.
60 * Which fonts are used for rendering can be influenced by setting the default
61 * font description, language and base direction of the context.
63 * If you want to calculate the space some text will need to be displayed you
64 * might find the functions of Pango::FontMetrics useful. Use get_metrics() to
65 * obtain the Pango::FontMetrics object for a specific Pango::FontDescription.
66 * For more detailed calculations in a rendering-system-independant manner
67 * and to determine whether specific characters can be represented by the
68 * font that would be used for a specific Pango::FontDescription load a
69 * Pango::Fontset with load_fontset() (load_font() returns the Pango::Font
70 * that is the closest match for a Pango::FontDescription; however that's not
71 * necessarily the font that will be used for rendering).
