In an MFC app I wrote, I wanted to display some normal text with an up arrow or down arrow inside a CStatic text control. The only font that contains those characters is the Symbols font. So I took one of the normal fonts, copied the arrows from Symbols into it and saved it with a new font name. Then in my MFC app I loaded that new font, and everything works great. Now I'd like to send the text to a lazer printer. These arrows obviously don't print because the printer doesn't know about my new font. Is there a standard way of loading fonts to a lazer printer so that it will use my new font? Thanks
