# appendPackedGlyphs(_:)

Appends an array of packed glyphs to the path.

```
func appendPackedGlyphs(_ packedGlyphs: UnsafePointer<CChar>)
```

## Parameters

`packedGlyphs`

A C-style array containing one or more `CGGlyph` data types terminated by a `NULL` character.

## Discussion

You should avoid using this method directly. Instead, use the [`appendGlyph(_:in:)`](/documentation/AppKit/NSBezierPath/appendGlyph(_:in:)) and [`appendGlyphs(_:count:in:)`](/documentation/AppKit/NSBezierPath/appendGlyphs(_:count:in:)) methods to append glyphs to a path.

## See Also

[`+  drawPackedGlyphs:atPoint:`](/documentation/AppKit/NSBezierPath/drawPackedGlyphs(_:at:))

Draws a set of packed glyphs at the specified point in the current coordinate system.
