<p id="index-0">This module provides access to the IRIS <em>Font Manager</em> library. It is
available only on Silicon Graphics machines. See also: <em>4Sight User’s Guide</em>,
section 1, chapter 5: “Using the IRIS Font Manager.”</p>
<p>This is not yet a full interface to the IRIS Font Manager. Among the unsupported
features are: matrix operations; cache operations; character operations (use
string operations instead); some details of font info; individual glyph metrics;
and printer matching.</p>
<p>It supports the following operations:</p>
