Font problems

[Jesper]

Hi,

I'm experiencing some font problems. A program I've made is distributed to a
number of computeres in a workgroup. On some of the computers the font on a
user control is changed, (perhaps also its size - I can't determine that as
some fonts are bigger than others at same pts. setting). All machines are
installed with latest .net service pack. Are the fonts part of the .net
framework?

How can I solve this problem?

regards
a desperat dane.

No, fonts are generally installed with the operating system, but many
users will pick up extra ones from programs like Microsoft Office.

You could include the font in your program's installer, or even just
copy it to the individual target machine's font folder (usually
something like c:\windows\fonts), but you'd probably be violating
somebody's copyright.

Ideally, you should try to avoid requiring specific non-standard fonts
in your program's interface. Are there really some special symbols
that you need in this font?
