"""
A module for finding, managing, and using fonts across platforms.

This module provides a single :class:`FontManager` instance that can
be shared across backends and platforms.  The :func:`findfont`
function returns the best TrueType (TTF) font file in the local or
system font path that matches the specified :class:`FontProperties`
instance.  The :class:`FontManager` also handles Adobe Font Metrics
(AFM) font files for use by the PostScript backend.

The design is based on the `W3C Cascading Style Sheet, Level 1 (CSS1)
font specification <http://www.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-CSS2-19980512/>`_.
Future versions may implement the Level 2 or 2.1 specifications.

Experimental support is included for using `fontconfig` on Unix
variant platforms (Linux, OS X, Solaris).  To enable it, set the
constant ``USE_FONTCONFIG`` in this file to ``True``.  Fontconfig has
the advantage that it is the standard way to look up fonts on X11
platforms, so if a font is installed, it is much more likely to be
found.

KNOWN ISSUES

  - documentation
  - font variant is untested
  - font stretch is incomplete
  - font size is incomplete
  - font size_adjust is incomplete
  - default font algorithm needs improvement and testing
  - setWeights function needs improvement
  - 'light' is an invalid weight value, remove it.
  - update_fonts not implemented

class FontProperties(object):
    """
    A class for storing and manipulating font properties.

    The font properties are those described in the `W3C Cascading
    Style Sheet, Level 1
    <http://www.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-CSS2-19980512/>`_ font
    specification.  The six properties are:

      - family: A list of font names in decreasing order of priority.
        The items may include a generic font family name, either
        'serif', 'sans-serif', 'cursive', 'fantasy', or 'monospace'.
        In that case, the actual font to be used will be looked up
        from the associated rcParam in :file:`matplotlibrc`.

      - style: Either 'normal', 'italic' or 'oblique'.

      - variant: Either 'normal' or 'small-caps'.

      - stretch: A numeric value in the range 0-1000 or one of
        'ultra-condensed', 'extra-condensed', 'condensed',
        'semi-condensed', 'normal', 'semi-expanded', 'expanded',
        'extra-expanded' or 'ultra-expanded'

      - weight: A numeric value in the range 0-1000 or one of
        'ultralight', 'light', 'normal', 'regular', 'book', 'medium',
        'roman', 'semibold', 'demibold', 'demi', 'bold', 'heavy',
        'extra bold', 'black'

      - size: Either an relative value of 'xx-small', 'x-small',
        'small', 'medium', 'large', 'x-large', 'xx-large' or an
        absolute font size, e.g., 12

    The default font property for TrueType fonts (as specified in the
    default :file:`matplotlibrc` file) is::

      sans-serif, normal, normal, normal, normal, scalable.

    Alternatively, a font may be specified using an absolute path to a
    .ttf file, by using the *fname* kwarg.

    The preferred usage of font sizes is to use the relative values,
    e.g.,  'large', instead of absolute font sizes, e.g., 12.  This
    approach allows all text sizes to be made larger or smaller based
    on the font manager's default font size.

    This class will also accept a `fontconfig
    <http://www.fontconfig.org/>`_ pattern, if it is the only argument
    provided.  See the documentation on `fontconfig patterns
    <http://www.fontconfig.org/fontconfig-user.html>`_.  This support
    does not require fontconfig to be installed.  We are merely
    borrowing its pattern syntax for use here.

    Note that matplotlib's internal font manager and fontconfig use a
    different algorithm to lookup fonts, so the results of the same pattern
    may be different in matplotlib than in other applications that use
    fontconfig.
