                                    SWFFont

   (PHP 4 >= 4.0.5)
   SWFFont -- Loads a font definition

Description

   new swffont ( string filename)

   Warning

   This function is EXPERIMENTAL. The behaviour of this function, the
   name of this function, and anything else documented about this
   function may change without notice in a future release of PHP. Use
   this function at your own risk.

   If filename is the name of an FDB file (i.e., it ends in ".fdb"), load
   the font definition found in said file. Otherwise, create a
   browser-defined font reference.

   FDB ("font definition block") is a very simple wrapper for the SWF
   DefineFont2 block which contains a full description of a font. One may
   create FDB files from SWT Generator template files with the included
   makefdb utility- look in the util directory off the main ming
   distribution directory.

   Browser-defined fonts don't contain any information about the font
   other than its name. It is assumed that the font definition will be
   provided by the movie player. The fonts _serif, _sans, and _typewriter
   should always be available. For example:
   <?php
   $f = newSWFFont("_sans");
   ?>
   will give you the standard sans-serif font, probably the same as what
   you'd get with <font name="sans-serif"> in HTML.

   swffont() returns a reference to the font definition, for use in the
   swftext->setfont() and the swftextfield->setfont() methods.

   SWFFont has the following methods : swffont->getwidth().
