Please Correct me if I have posted this in the wrong forum, I have a relatively simple question, I'm looking for a way to use Non-True type fonts in Visual basic. Specifically in a Forms app, and I'm looking to use said fonts in a Non-User Input object. (Label) If it helps, I'm looking to use Some Adobe Fonts such as Myraid Pro.

View 2 RepliesDoes anyone know of a solution for writing text to an image using an OTF? I know that GDI+ does not support OTF and that WPF does. I can load the font as a label in WPF, but still do not know how I can write this over an image, such as a watermark would do, and save that image.
I need this in an ASP.net page, so I won't actually be able to use WPF, but I figure that might be a start in building a class my page can import.

View 10 RepliesI was just adding some neat features to my program, and now I realize that they've caused problems with my formatting features. In my program, you can bold, underline, italicize, and strikethrough the text you select. You can also change the color and font of the text. After adding in the ability to change the font of the selected text, I noticed that there was a problem when you tried highlighting the entire word, with some characters in the word having different fonts, and then formatting (bolding, underlining, etc.) the text. The error I get is[code]...

I am trying to manually adjust character spacing between letters when drawing text with GDI. I am doing this by drawing each letter at a time. The problem is that you lose all the font kerning when you do this. How to get kerning data for fonts? Presumably you would send it the letter pair you want to get the offset for. Then when I draw each letter at a time I can subtract the offset for each letter pair.
