NAME¶
Font::TTF::PSNames - Utilities for Postscript glyph name processing
SYNOPSIS¶
use Font::TTF::PSNames qw(parse lookup);
$name = lookup($uni);
$uni = parse($name);
METHODS¶
lookup ( $usv [, $noAlt [, $noUni] ])¶
return the Adobe-recommended glyph name for a specific Unicode codepoint
(integer). By default returns "uniXXXX" names rather than
"afiiNNNNN" or "SFnnnnnn" names
If $noAlt is true, "afii" and "SF" names are returned rather
than "uniXXXX".
if $noUni is true, returns undef if it would have to resort to
"uniXXXX" or "uXXXXXX" style names. Essentially this
represents a straight lookup in the Adobe-recommended list.
parse ( $glyphname )¶
Parse an Adobe-conformant glyph name, generating a Unicode codepoint sequence
equivalent to the glyph (or glyph components, should the name represent a
ligature). In scalar context, returns a reference to an array of Unicodes
(decimal). Array is empty if the glyph name is non-conformant. In list
context, the first item returned is the same array reference as above. The
second item is a reference to an array containing the extensions (if any)
present on the glyph name. The '.' that precedes each extension is not
included.
