<Result>: Real
  • Width (in millimeters) of specified text if the print was performed,
  • -1 if the print was canceled before running the function.
<Font identifier>: Optional character string
Identifier of the font used, returned by iFont. If this parameter is not specified, the last font used will be selected.
<Text to print>: Character string (with quotes)
Character string whose width is requested.
Remarks

Calculating the width of a text written with fonts of different sizes

You must call iTextWidth for each text that is using a different font.

Calculating the width of a text containing CR characters

iTextWidth ignores the CR characters found in the text. You must call iTextWidth for each line found in the string.

Various

A call to iParameter after iTextWidth will have no action because the print is initialized.
