Sets the font of the current graphics port in which the text is to be rendered.
void TextFont (
SInt16 font
);
The font family ID. The initial font family ID is 0, which represents the system font. The value that you specify for this field is either an integer or a constant. The range of integers currently defined are from 0 to 32767. Currently, negative font family IDs are not supported, although they may be supported in the future.
The system font and application font have different font IDs and sizes on various script systems. However, the special designators 0 and 1 always map to the system font and the application font for the system script, respectively.
The TextFont function sets the value of the graphics port text font (txFont) field. To ensure future compatibility and benefit from any enhancements, always use this function to modify the txFont field, rather than directly change the field value.
Supported in Carbon. Available in Carbon 1.0.2 and later when running Mac OS 8.1 or later.
