I don't know, what is a Custom font. But generally, if you want to convert characters from Windows-125* (depending of localization of the OS) to Unicode encoding, use
mbstowcs()function. Robert-Antonio "Love, truth and electric traction must gain victory over hate, lie and diesel traction." -

What I meant by Custom font is an installed True Type font. I have to read some data from an Excel file and write it as XML. Now the excel file uses this TTF for Devnagari Script. It contains Hindi characters. I have to convert these into Unicode if they are to be shown correctly in the XML (Or is there another way?)

Do you have the Devangari charset in your Windows localization? Robert-Antonio "Friends come and leave, but teddybears stay in forever."

So it's simple. If the Devangari charset is default on your system, use
mbstowcs. When not, useMultiByteToWideChar, where you supply the Devangari charset codepage number. See MSDN for details about these functions. Robert-Antonio
