XPLMFontID

X-Plane features some fixed-character fonts. Each font may have its own metrics.

WARNING: Some of these fonts are no longer supported or may have changed geometries. For maximum copmatibility, see the comments below.

Note: X-Plane 7 supports proportional-spaced fonts. Since no measuring routine is available yet, the SDK will normally draw using a fixed-width font. You can use a dataref to enable proportional font drawing on XP7 if you want to.
