Introduction

This document describes FontSync for Carbon and Classic applications. FontSync provides a common method for identifying fonts based upon the content of the font, rather than just the font name, as a document is moved from machine to machine. Your application can use FontSync to compare fonts used on different machines, thus helping the user minimize font mismatch errors.

This document describes FontSync in the following sections:

  • FontSync Concepts provides a conceptual overview of FontSync.
  • "FontSync Reference" provides a complete description of the FontSync 1.0 API, including its functions, data types, constants, and result codes.
  • Document Revision History provides a history of changes to this document.
