Fontconfig uses abstract datatypes to hide internal implementation details
for most data structures. A few structures are exposed where appropriate.

These are primitive datatypes; the FcChar* types hold precisely the number
of bits stated (if supported by the C implementation). FcBool holds
one of two CPP symbols: FcFalse or FcTrue.

</programlisting>
An FcFontSet contains a list of FcPatterns. Internally fontconfig uses this
data structure to hold sets of fonts. Externally, fontconfig returns the
patterns in the 'fonts' array; 'sfont' is used to indicate the size of that
array.

safely and correctly walk the list of strings even while that list is edited
in the middle of enumeration.

Fontconfig contains two essential modules, the configuration module which
builds an internal configuration from XML files and the matching module
which accepts font patterns and returns the nearest matching font.

The configuration module consists of the FcConfig datatype, libexpat and

<title>FONT MATCHING</title>
<para>
Fontconfig performs matching by measuring the distance from a provided
rasterized. Those must apply to the selected font, not the original pattern
as false matches will often occur.

Fontconfig provides a textual representation for patterns that the library
can both accept and generate. The representation is in three parts, first a
symbolic constants that simultaneously indicate both a name and a value.

Each font in the database contains a list of languages it supports. This is
computed by comparing the Unicode coverage of the font with the orthography
141 of the languages with two-letter codes from ISO 639-2 and another 30
languages with only three-letter codes.
