John sed: >I'm trying to list all the fonts available in the Fonts folder in a EDIT >field, but I have been having trouble doing it. Does anybody know how to do >it? jonathan replies [rant alert]: 1/ the Fonts folder is an Apple 'blessed' folder - please use special code to seek it out or your code will fail on foreign systems. On my station Fonts is called Polices for example! 2/ i would have thought * find the folder * make a list of what's in it and their type * eliminate the printer fonts leaving bitmaps and truetype * shove them in a list * display... where exactly are you having problems? 3/ If you want to find all fonts installed remember that folks also use thingies like Suitcase, MasterJuggler, Font Reserve, Carpet bagger to install fonts elsewhere from their systems. 4/ what exactly is your project sir (answer privately on this if you don't wish to shout commercial info to the wurld) jonathan ------------------------------------------------------------- !
