# al\_get\_font\_ranges(3alleg5)

Allegro 5 API

## NAME

al\_get\_font\_ranges - Allegro 5 API

## SYNOPSIS

-

  ```
  #include <allegro5/allegro_font.h>
  int al_get_font_ranges(ALLEGRO_FONT *f, int ranges_count, int *ranges)
  ```

## DESCRIPTION

Gets information about all glyphs contained in a font, as a list of ranges. Ranges have the same format as with al\_grab\_font\_from\_bitmap(3alleg5).

`ranges_count` is the maximum number of ranges that will be returned.

`ranges` should be an array with room for `ranges_count` \* 2 elements. The even integers are the first unicode point in a range, the odd integers the last unicode point in a range.

Returns the number of ranges contained in the font (even if it is bigger than `ranges_count`).
