Enumerate all the fonts, and check if your font is installed or not. Use
System.Drawing.FontFamily.GetFamilies. Static function.

Good Luck.

You can use the classes here.

Alternatively, if your app has access priveledges to run, you can
check the font folder in the windows directory to see if a file
pertaining to the font exists in there.
