Hi, i was wondering if it was possible to store a font file within a resource file ?
I didn't think it would be possible since the Font itself would be looked for in the Fonts folder... but still you never know...
Is it possible ?
and if so, how ?

Yes, you can store it in the resource file but it would need to be extracted to file(s) and possibly
installed before it can be used.
Thankyou, is there any decent sites that i could learn how to do this from ? or indeed any examples that people may already have used ?
Yes, there are many on our Fourms already. Here is one of mine.
Resource + Files
The examples I've seen show how to programmatically get stuff out of a Resource File, but how would you, programmatically, but stuff into a Resource File?
Can you store Word Documents in a Resource File?
Is there a limit on how much can be stored in a Resource File?
If you look towards the end of my links posts you will find a walk through on how to create/add a resource.
There is a limit, but I think its 64k. Not too sure.
You can store any type of file in a resource file, just add it as a custom type of resource.
