PRB: GetGlyphOutLine() Causes GPF Under Chinese Windows 3.1

Q126225



The information in this article applies to:


  • Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) 3.1





SYMPTOMS

Under Traditional Chinese Windows version 3.1, if GetGlyphOutLine() is called many times (more than 1000 times) on a Chinese font that's larger than 100 points, the GDI heap will be eroded rapidly and the application will eventually fail giving a general protection (GP) fault.



RESOLUTION

If GetGlyphOutLine() needs to be called repeatedly on a Chinese font, please set the font size to be no larger than 100pt.



STATUS

This behavior is by design.
