Constant Meaning
CLIP_DEFAULT_PRECIS Specifies default clipping behavior.
_ Not used.
CLIP_STROKE_PRECIS Not used by the font mapper, but is returned when raster, vector, or TrueType fonts are enumerated.Windows NT: For compatibility, this value is always returned when enumerating fonts.
CLIP_MASK Not used.
CLIP_EMBEDDED You must specify this flag to use an embedded read-only font.
CLIP_LH_ANGLES When this value is used, the rotation for all fonts depends on whether the orientation of the coordinate system is left-handed or right-handed. If not used, device fonts always rotate counterclockwise, but the rotation of other fonts is dependent on the orientation of the coordinate system.
