Options Key
| Option | Description |
| 0 | This option specifies the default behavior of the system's font mapper. |
| 1 | The system's font mapper does not use this option. It is only returned when raster fonts are enumerated. |
| 2 | This option is not used. |
| 3 | The system's font mapper does not use this option. It is only returned when outline-based fonts (TrueType for example) and vector fonts are enumerated. |
| 4 | This option tells the system's font mapper to use only a TrueType font. This is necessary when the system has different fonts that have the same name. |
| 5 | This option forces the system's font mapper to choose a device font. This is necessary when the system has different fonts that have the same name. |
| 6 | This option forces the system's font mapper to choose a raster font. This is necessary when the system has different fonts that have the same name. |
| 7 | This option tells the system's font mapper to select only a TrueType font. If the system cannot find a TrueType font, the system font mapper uses the default font. |
| 8 | This option tells the system's font mapper to select outline-based fonts, such as TrueType fonts. |
| 9 | This option defines a specific preference for outline fonts, such as the TrueType font style. |
| 10 | This option tells the system's font mapper to select only PostScript fonts. The system returns the default font type if it cannot find a PostScript font. |
