Create a font from the resource file
-
I;m writing a project that works with barcodes. The easiest way to work with them is to use them as font. The problem is that the font must be installes on the client computer. Well, I'm looking for something different, where the user dossn't need to have or install the font, and the solution I came up with is to ave the font as a resource. This way the font will always be shipped with the program. Now the problem is how to use that font. That is, create a font object from a font definition which is a resource. By the way, I dont want to copy the font to the font directory on the windows system. Any clues or hints that can help me. Thanks in advance. Hernan Breinbauer
