Description

Set font family to use.
The plugin will look through the list to find best match for combination of family, style, stretch and weight.
You can use either GMImage.SetFontFamily or GMImage.SetFont, but not both.
Setting font family clears font.

In v10.4 the selected font must resolve to one font file and may not work if multiple font faces are in one folder.

Examples

Set font family and other properties:

Set Variable [ $r ; Value: MBS("GMImage.SetFontPointsize"; $ref; 40) ]
Set Variable [ $r ; Value: MBS("GMImage.SetFontStyle"; $ref; "Italic") ]
Set Variable [ $r ; Value: MBS("GMImage.SetFontFamily"; $ref; "Times") ]
Set Variable [ $r ; Value: MBS("GMImage.SetFontStretch"; $ref; "Normal") ]
Set Variable [ $r ; Value: MBS("GMImage.SetFontWeight"; $ref; 800) ]
