#### Declaration [src]

    void
    pango_glyph_item_letter_space (

      PangoLogAttr* log_attrs,
      int letter_spacing
    )

#### Description [src]

Adds spacing between the graphemes of `glyph_item` to give the effect of typographic letter spacing.

Available since: 1.6

#### Parameters

`text`

  Type: `const char*`

  Text that `glyph_item` corresponds to (glyph_item->item->offset is an offset from the start of `text`).

  The data is owned by the caller of the method.
  The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.

`log_attrs`

  Type: An array of `PangoLogAttr`

  Logical attributes for the item (the first logical attribute refers to the position before the first character in the item).

  The data is owned by the caller of the method.

`letter_spacing`

  Type: `int`

  Amount of letter spacing to add in Pango units. May be negative, though too large negative values will give ugly results.
