This is your problem. The documentation says that you cannot specify anything
but a .fon file for the name. A .fnt file is nothing but a raw font. A .fon
file is an empty DLL with font resources attached.
If you want to use GpiLoadFonts, you must compile a dummy entrypoint into
a DLL and then use the resource compiler to attach the font to the DLL.
Your DLL can consist of nothing but:
main()
{
}
Compile that into an .obj file and go from there. You could then install
the font into your system if you like using the font palette.
