FontStretch Struct

Definition

Describes the degree to which a font has been stretched compared to the normal aspect ratio of that font.

[<System.Windows.Localizability(System.Windows.LocalizationCategory.None)>]

Remarks

A font stretch describes the degree to which a font form is stretched from its normal aspect ratio, which is the original width to height ratio specified for the glyphs in the font.

The FontStretches values correspond to the usWidthClass definition in the OpenType specification. The usWidthClass represents an integer value between 1 and 9 - lower values indicate narrower widths; higher values indicate wider widths.

Font stretch usWidthClass % of normal
UltraCondensed 1 50.0%
ExtraCondensed 2 62.5%
Condensed 3 75.0%
SemiCondensed 4 87.5%
Medium 5 100.0%
SemiExpanded 6 112.5%
Expanded 7 125.0%
ExtraExpanded 8 150.0%
UltraExpanded 9 200.0%

For more information on the OpenType usWidthClass value, see the usWidthClass section of the OpenType specification.

FromOpenTypeStretch(Int32)

Creates a new instance of FontStretch that corresponds to the OpenType usStretchClass value.

GetHashCode()

Retrieves the hash code for this object.

ToOpenTypeStretch()

Returns a value that represents the OpenType usStretchClass for this FontStretch object.

ToString()
