[python-win32] Problem accessing GetFontData in Windows API

I'm trying to access the following function from the Windows API:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd144885(VS.85).aspx

I'm sure I'm drastically over simplifying, but I'm testing it like this:

import win32api
print win32api.GetFontData()

This of course errors out with "AttributeError: function 'GetFontData' not found".

Does anyone have any tips on how I might access this function? I need to resolve the font face name (for example, "Arial") as returned by wxPython, to the Windows filename (for example, c:\windows\fonts\arial.ttf) as required by the Image module, and it looks like GetFontData() from the Windows API is the solution.
