select_font_face

Selects a font by family name for subsequent show_text and text_extents calls.

$cr->select_font_face(‘Sans’, ‘normal’, ‘bold’);

$family is a font family such as 'Sans' or 'Serif', $slant is one of 'normal', 'italic' or 'oblique', and $weight is 'normal' or 'bold'. The family is interpreted as text, so accented and non-Latin names work. This is the simple font-selection interface; set_font_face takes a font object instead. Wraps cairo_select_font_face.
