    Hi, I've developed an application that uses a few font styles that might not be present in all machines... How can I embed these fonts when I deploy my application at the Client's system, assuming that his system does not have those fonts installed... Please suggest... Thanks in Advance, ramz_g

        Hi Eddy, Thanks for the reply... But I think you misunderstood my question... Suppose my client's system does not have a font style named "xyz" which I used in my application. I asked how to embed the font in my application and deploy the application on my client's system so that he sees the same font styles that I used while developing the application.

          You'll have to put the font in the font-directory, that's it. If 'xyz' is installed there, your application can use it without problems. I doubt that it can be used when it's merely an embedded resource. I might be mistaken off course, perhaps one of the other readers has a better idea or option that you may try :) --edit-- I was mistaken! :-D

            Hi, have a look at the PrivateFontCollection Class. :)

              You do need to be careful here, as if they don't have the fonts installed, they might not then have licenses to use them. You don't want to be distributing copyright material now...
