I tried that. I can set the font base in code, but
the fonts will not embed. The only way I've got them
to embed is if I point to them in my font config file
by pointing to them using an absolute path
"file://c:/..", which I can't do, due to the fact that
I can't change the path for every server. If you want
to embed the fonts does it have to be done using the
config file or is it possible to do it in code.
Thanks again for your help.
Thanks,
Mike
