Windows 3.00 Font Files Are Larger Than Documented ID Number: Q71145

3.00 WINDOWS docerr

Summary:

There is an inconsistency between the Windows 3.00 font-file format described in the “Windows Developer’s Notes” and the actual version 3.00 FNT file generated from the Font Editor. The font file is 18 bytes larger.

More Information:

This is related to a documentation error in the developer’s notes and on page 12-33 of the “Windows Device Development Kit Device Driver Adaptation Guide.” The dfColorPointer field of the font data structure is 4 bytes, not the 2 bytes described in the printed documentation. The dfReserved1 field is 16 bytes versus the documented 4 bytes.
