saving a font

[2G]

Hi

How do you install a font using c# ? Copying it into the dir won't work.

Grtz.

Install it through the API with P/Invoke, see the docs for AddFontResource()

I do
int i = AddFontResource("c:\\microN55.ttf");

and it returns 1 but the font doesn't seem to be installed (I can't find it
in the fonts dir). What should i do?

You have to copy the font to the Font dir then call AddFontResource

See
