Re: Windows true type fonts

we already have a tool that will convert a truetype image into a bitmap 
with coordinate data image that can be read by the game to break the 
single image into individual letters.

the game engine is open-source, so you can grab what you need/want from 
it ;}

> Writing a tool to output true type fonts as images for use in game.  All is fine the last thing I would like to do is give the true type font file as an input to the tool rather than having to install the true type font into the system "fonts" directory.  So is there a windows way of opening a true type font and then using it via GDI or GDIplus drawing commands ?
