Glyph handles in DrvTextOut()

Hello

Is there any way to find out the character code for the glyph handles passed
in the DrvTextOut, STROBJ struct?

For the true type fonts, are the glyph handles corresponding to the glyph
indexes in the true type font file? Or is there any way to map them?

Thank you
Luminita

Luminata,
There is not always a 1:1 mapping between glyph indices and character codes
and vice versa.
This is expecially true with international character sets like Hebrew,
Arabic etc.
The string pstro->pwszOrg has a Unicode string if the below is NOT true:
if ( pstro->flAccel & SO_GLYPHINDEX_TEXTOUT )

Hope this helps.

Thank you,
