Class VerifyGlyphExists

java.lang.Object

VerifyGlyphExists

public class VerifyGlyphExists
extends Object

Simple command-line program to test whether a given font has a glyph available for a given Unicode codepoint, expressed as an integer.

 java VerifyGlyphExists 945 /path/to/fontfile
 

If the glyph is available, output will look something like "FOUND α for java.awt.Font[family=Kochi Gothic,name=Kochi Gothic, style=plain,size=12] from /usr/share/fonts/truetype/kochi/kochi-gothic.ttf"; if not available, will look something like "NO GLYPH α for java.awt.Font[family=Lohit Bengali,name=Lohit Bengali,style=plain,size=12] from /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-bengali-fonts/lohit_bn.ttf".

Test for the glyph relies on java.awt.Font.canDisplay(codepoint).

Arguments: valid arguments are either code point and font-file path, or code point and font-list path. Font-list must be a text file with one line per font-file path. When providing a font list, the program will loop over all font files listed in the font-list, and check each one for support of the glyph.
