Magnum::Text::HarfBuzzFont class

HarfBuzz font plugin.

Contents

Improves FreeTypeFont with HarfBuzz text layouting capabilities, such as kerning, ligatures etc.

This plugin depends on the Text and HarfBuzz libraries and the FreeTypeFont plugin. It is built if WITH_HARFBUZZFONT is enabled when building Magnum Plugins. To use as a dynamic plugin, you need to load the "HarfBuzzFont" plugin from MAGNUM_PLUGINS_FONT_DIR. To use as a static plugin or as a dependency of another plugin with CMake, you need to request the HarfBuzzFont component of the MagnumPlugins package and link to the MagnumPlugins::HarfBuzzFont target. See Downloading and building plugins, Plugin usage with CMake and Loading and using plugins for more information.
