Uniscribe and Text Outlines

Question

Can I use the output from ScriptShape/ScriptItemize in Uniscribe to get the char codes and pass the char codes to GetGlyphOutline to get the beziers?

Does Uniscribe have a call to get the outlines directly?

@Downvoters. Reasons would help a lot. Or did you not get the question ? The documentation isn't the best in the world. — Kshitij Banerjee, Jun 19 '14 at 06:57

For anyone wondering the same.

The short answer: Yes. It works.

Uniscribe returns a WORD whereas the GetCharacterPlacement one gives out an LPCSTR though, so just look at that, should be trivial.

Nothing surprising though, this was just to confirm before I spend my time on it :)
