# CTFramesetterGetTypesetter(_:)

Returns the typesetter object being used by the framesetter.

## Declaration

```swift
func CTFramesetterGetTypesetter(_ framesetter: CTFramesetter) -> CTTypesetter
```

## Parameters

- `framesetter`: The framesetter from which a typesetter is requested.

## Return Value

Return Value A reference to a CTTypesetter object if the call was successful; otherwise, NULL. The framesetter maintains a reference to the returned object, which should not be released by the caller.

## Discussion

Discussion Each framesetter uses a typesetter internally to perform line breaking and other contextual analysis based on the characters in a string; this function returns the typesetter being used by a particular framesetter in case the caller would like to perform other operations on that typesetter.
