I'm afraid GDI will pick the "nearest" font and use that. You stand a
better chance at picking the 6 lotto balls than figuring out which font GDI
will substitute it for. If you must use a fancy font, you will probably
have to get a redistributable font and embed that into your application (as
a resource perhaps), and install that font during setup. Having said that,
I normally go around deleting fonts that setup program installs into my
machine.

Dennis.
