While the width of characters in a font may vary (though fixed width fonts do not vary), the maximum height characteristics of a particular font are fixed. glutBitmapLength returns the length in pixels of a string (8-bit characters). This length is equivalent to summing all the widths returned by glutBitmapWidth for each character in the string. <A NAME="lbAF"> </A> <H2>SEE ALSO</H2> glutBitmapCharacter, glutStrokeWidth <A NAME="lbAG"> </A> <H2>AUTHOR</H2> Mark J.
