FcFreeTypeQueryFace(3)

🦋 NAME 🦋

okay bestie, welcome to the FcFreeTypeQueryFace(3) page 💖 — this one is literally about FcFreeTypeQueryFace, which computes a pattern from FT_Face. no cap, that’s the whole vibe of the NAME section ✨

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <fontconfig.h>
#include <fcfreetype.h>

FcPattern * FcFreeTypeQueryFace (const FT_Face face, const FcChar8 *file, int id, FcBlanks *blanks);

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so this function constructs a pattern representing face, and that’s the main character energy here 👑. The file and id args are used solely as data for pattern elements — specifically FC_FILE, FC_INDEX, and sometimes FC_FAMILY 🎀. That’s it, they’re not out here doing extra side quests.

🫶 heads up, bestie: FcBlanks is deprecated. The blanks argument is ignored and is accepted only for compatibility with older code. so don’t expect it to do anything — it’s just there being polite for legacy vibes 💀
