The #PangoFont structure is used to represent a font in a rendering-system-independent matter. To create an implementation of a #PangoFont, the rendering-system specific code should allocate a larger structure that contains a nested #PangoFont, fill in the <structfield>klass</structfield> member of the nested #PangoFont with a pointer to a appropriate #PangoFontClass, then call pango_font_init() on the structure.
