Zappy Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 Hey y'all! Just a quick, easy to answer question.If I change the font used in the txtChat, and txtInput boxes in frmMain to a downloaded font, will packaging the .exe also package the font? So will others who haven't downloaded the font, still be able to see text, or will they just see [][][][][]. Thanks! ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruins of Hell Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 If the font isn't installed by default, it's very likely they'll see [][][][].Many installers can install fonts, which I would recommend over calling the API directly (if you want to do that, check out "AddFontResource" and "RemoveFontResource").Oh yes, and legal issues about fonts being in the public domain/if the author requires credit applies of course.

Zappy Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 Why thank you! I'll probably have to work with AddFontResource until I feel satisfied enough to release publicly and make an installer.And yes yes, I just stick to the free font sites that tell me which fonts are "commercial use friendly!" just in case ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
