The Open List of AFP Information (QGYOLAFP) API lists entries from a font mapping table or list font character set or code page information from a coded font and places the list in a receiver variable. You can access additional records by using the Get List Entries (QGYGTLE) API. On successful completion of the API, a handle is returned in the list information parameter. You may use this handle on subsequent calls to the following APIs:
