<h4>note</h4>
<p>This function works with BDF <i>and</i> PCF fonts. It returns an error otherwise. It also returns an error if the property is not in the font.</p>
<p>A &lsquo;property&rsquo; is a either key-value pair within the STARTPROPERTIES ... ENDPROPERTIES block of a BDF font or a key-value pair from the &lsquo;info-&gt;props&rsquo; array within a &lsquo;FontRec&rsquo; structure of a PCF font.</p>
<p>Integer properties are always stored as &lsquo;signed&rsquo; within PCF fonts; consequently, <a href="ft2-bdf_fonts.html#BDF_PropertyType">BDF_PROPERTY_TYPE_CARDINAL</a> is a possible return value for BDF fonts only.</p>
<p>In case of error, &lsquo;aproperty-&gt;type&rsquo; is always set to <a href="ft2-bdf_fonts.html#BDF_PropertyType">BDF_PROPERTY_TYPE_NONE</a>.</p>
