    Using Fonts

    Hi

    I am creating a menu program that will be used for a CD, I would like to use a Font i have downloaded but I remember in the past, when I used my program on another machine, because that font wasnt installed on there pc, my program would use a default font.

    Is there a way I can tell my program to use a font thats sitting in a directory, so I could have that font on the Root of a CD and my program would pick it up and use.

    I dont particulary want my program to copy the font into there windows font directory just to be used by my program for a very short period of time.

    Thanks

    I think that if you have the font in the same directory as your exe, it uses that font automatically - just like a .dll or .ocx file.
