Embed font

[nize]

I need some special fonts in my application (users interface simulation). When I shall distribute the application are I not allowed to give the fonts away. Can I embed the fonts in the application without install them in Windows? I use VB5.

If you have permission to distribute the fonts then add them to your deployment package and install them to the users font directory. If you do not then you will have to use fonts that the user will have or VB will take a guess when it comes to displaying a control using the fonts.

If you are unsure whether you have permission to distribute fonts then load the font into windows explorer to get ownership information. You can then ask them for permission.
