`pdfSetFontEncodingDiff`

Override the glyph name for one character code in a simple

Category	Simple-font encoding
Exported names	`pdfSetFontEncodingDiffA` (ANSI only — no `W` variant)

Purpose — Override the glyph name for one character code in a simple font's /Differences encoding array.

Description — Stores GlyphName at Code in the target font entry's 256-slot difference table (allocated on first use). Applies to the specific font identified by FontHandle — this one, unlike several others in this chapter, does take an explicit font handle rather than implicitly targeting "the current font."

Declarations

BOOL32 __stdcall pdfSetFontEncodingDiffA(PPDF IPDF, int32_t FontHandle, int32_t Code, const char* GlyphName);

Delphi

function pdfSetFontEncodingDiffA(const IPDF: PPDF; FontHandle, Code: Integer; const GlyphName: PAnsiChar): LongBool; stdcall; external 'LumasPdf.dll';

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`IPDF`	`PPDF`	Instance handle.
`FontHandle`	`Integer`	Target font entry's handle.
`Code`	`Integer`	Character code, `0..255`.
`GlyphName`	`PAnsiChar`	Standard PostScript glyph name (e.g. `"bullet"`, `"Euro"`) to map at that code.

Return value — TRUE if FontHandle is valid and Code is in 0..255; FALSE otherwise.
