The Font Association Table Record

The font association table record, which is part of the font family resource, maps a point size and style to a specific font that is part of the family. The table record, of data type FontAssoc, consists of a count of the entries in the table and is followed by the entry records.

TYPE FontAssoc = 
RECORD
   numAssoc:   Integer;    {number of entries - 1}
   {entries:   ARRAY[0..n] of AsscEntry;}
END;

Each entry in the font association table is a font association entry record, of data type AsscEntry.

TYPE AsscEntry =
RECORD
   fontSize:   Integer;    {point size of font}
   fontStyle:  Integer;    {style of font}
   fontID:     Integer;    {font resource ID}
END;

The fields of the font association table and font association table entry record are described in the section "The Font Association Table," beginning on page 4-89.
