Name
       XDrawImageString, XDrawImageString16 - draw image text

Syntax
       XDrawImageString(display, d, gc, x, y, string, length)
	  Display *display;
	  Drawable d;
	  GC gc;
	  int x, y;
	  char *string;
	  int length;

       XDrawImageString16(display, d, gc, x, y, string, length)
	  Display *display;
	  Drawable d;
	  GC gc;
	  int x, y;
	  XChar2b *string;
	  int length;

Arguments
       d	 Specifies the drawable.

       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       gc	 Specifies the GC.

       length	 Specifies the number of characters in the string argument.

       string	 Specifies the character string.

       x
       y	 Specify the x and y coordinates, which are relative to the origin of the specified drawable and define the origin of the first
		 character.

Description
       The function is similar to except that it uses 2-byte or 16-bit characters.  Both functions also use both the foreground and background
       pixels of the GC in the destination.

       The effect is first to fill a destination rectangle with the background pixel defined in the GC and then to paint the text with the fore-
       ground pixel.  The upper-left corner of the filled rectangle is at:

       [x, y - font-ascent]

       The width is:

       overall-width

       The height is:

       font-ascent + font-descent

       The overall-width, font-ascent, and font-descent are as would be returned by using gc and string.  The function and fill-style defined in
       the GC are ignored for these functions.	The effective function is and the effective fill-style is

       For fonts defined with 2-byte matrix indexing and used with each byte is used as a byte2 with a byte1 of zero.

       Both functions use these GC components: plane-mask, foreground, background, font, subwindow-mode, clip-x-origin, clip-y-origin, and clip-
       mask.

       and can generate and errors.

Diagnostics
       A value for a Drawable argument does not name a defined Window or Pixmap.

       A value for a GContext argument does not name a defined GContext.

       An	 window is used as a Drawable.

       Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct type and range but fails
		 to match in some other way required by the request.

NAME

       XDrawImageString, XDrawImageString16 - draw image text

SYNTAX

       int XDrawImageString(Display *display, Drawable d, GC gc, int x, int y, char *string, int length);

       int XDrawImageString16(Display *display, Drawable d, GC gc, int x, int y, XChar2b *string, int length);

ARGUMENTS

       d	 Specifies the drawable.

       display	 Specifies the connection to the X server.

       gc	 Specifies the GC.

       length	 Specifies the number of characters in the string argument.

       string	 Specifies the character string.

       x
       y	 Specify the x and y coordinates, which are relative to the origin of the specified drawable and define the origin of the first
		 character.

DESCRIPTION

       The XDrawImageString16 function is similar to XDrawImageString except that it uses 2-byte or 16-bit characters.	Both functions also use
       both the foreground and background pixels of the GC in the destination.

       The effect is first to fill a destination rectangle with the background pixel defined in the GC and then to paint the text with the fore-
       ground pixel.  The upper-left corner of the filled rectangle is at:

       [x, y - font-ascent]

       The width is:

       overall-width

       The height is:

       font-ascent + font-descent

       The overall-width, font-ascent, and font-descent are as would be returned by XQueryTextExtents using gc and string.  The function and fill-
       style defined in the GC are ignored for these functions.  The effective function is GXcopy, and the effective fill-style is FillSolid.

       For fonts defined with 2-byte matrix indexing and used with XDrawImageString, each byte is used as a byte2 with a byte1 of zero.

       Both functions use these GC components: plane-mask, foreground, background, font, subwindow-mode, clip-x-origin, clip-y-origin, and clip-
       mask.

       XDrawImageString and XDrawImageString16 can generate BadDrawable, BadGC, and BadMatch errors.

DIAGNOSTICS

       BadDrawable
		 A value for a Drawable argument does not name a defined Window or Pixmap.

       BadGC	 A value for a GContext argument does not name a defined GContext.

       BadMatch  An InputOnly window is used as a Drawable.

       BadMatch  Some argument or pair of arguments has the correct type and range but fails to match in some other way required by the request.
