- Hi Richard,
- There is an example of making FON files out of FNTs in the
- documantation of SDK (I can't remember which book).
- FON files are resource only DLLs and you can make them without any
- difficulties (but reading those pages will help you a lot).
-
- Otherwise, you can use Borland's WorkShop if you have access to it,
- because by using it, you can cop the whole FNT file into an existing
- FON file which is much easier :-)
