The second means that the text is clipped to the rectangle supplied. x1, y1, x2 and y2, are the points of the optional clipping rectangle, included if flags has ETO_CLIPPED set<br> Then the string follows, and then there is an optional array of widths, each 16bit width is the distance from one character to the next. <p><a href="support.html">back</a><p> </body>
