- Hallo allemaal,
-
- I'd like to know how to include a font in(to) my program.
- I'm programming, and I can use diskfonts, but I'd like to include
- the font in the executable for some reason. After opening a
- diskfont I can save a part of memory (starting at the fonts
- starting address), but I don't know exactly how much to save.
- The format of the data is slightly different from the data in the
- fontfile, that's why I'm taking a piece of memory. It works, but
- I probably take too much, and I'd like to know a more 'official'
- way. I know I SHOULD use diskfonts, and better still, let the
- user choose the font, but I'm not up to that stuff yet (trust
- me in that :-).
-
- Can anyone tell me how to do this? Are there converters that
- take a fontfile, and makes it a er.... memory font?
-
- Thanks!
- Bert
