Talk2Tom11 Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 within my application I have a label that is written in a font that is not usually in Windows... so when I run the app on a computer that doesn't have the font... it doesn't display the right font... how do i get it to display right? Quote
sjn78 Posted March 3, 2004 Posted March 3, 2004 Do you want your font to be displayed or a default font if it doesn't exist? Quote
*Experts* mutant Posted March 3, 2004 *Experts* Posted March 3, 2004 You could install the font during installation of your program. Quote
Talk2Tom11 Posted March 3, 2004 Author Posted March 3, 2004 I want the font to be displayed always... is there a code if I have the font file in the bin file... to have the label read it's text from the file in the bin? Quote
*Experts* mutant Posted March 3, 2004 *Experts* Posted March 3, 2004 The font has to be installed into the font respository of Windows. Quote
ballisticnylon Posted March 4, 2004 Posted March 4, 2004 (edited) I wonder if there would be a way to have a font be an embedded resource, and then summon it as a stream. Probably not... EDIT: nope.
