printSetup: ?? -> unit

val nameFromUnicode : ?namelist:string -> int -> string

Finds the glyph name associated with a given unicode codepoint. If a namelist is specified the name will be taken from that.

val unicodeFromName : glyphname:string -> int

Finds the glyph name associated with a given unicode codepoint. If a namelist is specified the name will be taken from that.

Looks up glyph name in its dictionary and if it is associated with a unicode code point returns that number. Otherwise it returns -1.

val version : unit -> string

Looks up glyph name in its dictionary and if it is associated with a unicode code point returns that number. Otherwise it returns -1.

Returns fontforge's version number as a string. This will be a large number like 20070406.

val fonts : unit -> Font.t list

Returns fontforge's version number as a string. This will be a large number like 20070406.

Returns a list of all fonts currently loaded into fontforge for editing.

val activeFont : unit -> Font.t option

Returns a list of all fonts currently loaded into fontforge for editing.

If the script were invoked from the File->Execute Script... dialog, or invoked by a menu item in the font view, this returns the font that was active at the time. Otherwise it returns None.

val activeGlyph : unit -> Glyph.t option

If the script were invoked from the File->Execute Script... dialog, or invoked by a menu item in the font view, this returns the font that was active at the time. Otherwise it returns None.

If the script were invoked from the File->Execute Script... dialog or a menu item from an outline glyph window or a glyph import/export command this returns the glyph that was active at the time. Otherwise it returns None.

val activeLayer : unit -> int

This returns the currently active layer as an integer between 0 (inclusive) and the font/glyph's layer count (exclusive). It may also be set to -1 if the current glyph window is displaying the font's guidline layer.

val fontsInFile : filename:string -> string list

Returns the list of all fontnames found in the specified file. The list may be empty if fontforge couldn't find any.

val openFont : filename:string -> Font.t

Returns the list of all fontnames found in the specified file. The list may be empty if fontforge couldn't find any.

Opens a filename and returns the font it contains. If it does. If the flags argument is 4, then FontForge will load all glyphs in the 'glyf' table of a ttc file (rather than just the glyphs used in the font picked). This will not load all 'glyf' tables though. Not implemented: flags argument (So, the defaut Python value is used.). Note the original Python name is open, but it is an Ocaml keyword.

val parseTTInstr : string -> string

Returns a binary string each byte of which corresponds to a truetype instruction. The input string should contain a set of instruction names as "SRP0\nMIRPmin,rnd,black".

val unParseTTInstr : string -> string

Returns a binary string each byte of which corresponds to a truetype instruction. The input string should contain a set of instruction names as "SRP0\nMIRPmin,rnd,black".

Reverse of the above. Converts a binary string into a human (sort of) readable string.
