Return Value

ImGearPDFFixedPoint class object indicating the advance width.

Remarks

Advance width is returned in either character space or user space. The advance width is the amount by which the current point advances when the character is drawn.

Advance width may be horizontal or vertical, depending on the writing style. Thus the return value has both a horizontal and vertical component.
