How to find what library to link to?

For fuctions that are not documented with a lib on msdn, how to know which lib it needs.  The 2 functions that i am currently trying to link are FONTOBJ_pxoGetXform and XFORMOBJ_iGetXform.

Thanks for any help

    This is a GDI API that only DRIVERS can call. It is defined in winddi.h and whatever components are needed should already be linked in by whaetever the instructions are for correctly building a driver.

    Anyway, this question should be handled in the device driver forum here:

    I am using it within a driver.  I am modifying one of the DDK samples for my needs and cannot find what to link to it to get it to compile.  (I am working with the sample *WINDDK\2600\src\print\oemdll\oemps)

    Isnt there a way to find out what lib it needs
