I had the same problem. I created a 'palm font edit' program (with Visual
C++) that was willing to write out the resource as a .r (text) file and then
included that in the build.

Subject:        How to Include a font or other binary resource in CW-for-Windows?

PROBLEM:
I need a mono-spaced font for my PalmIII application.

I can make my font with an editor editor that produces ".pft" files.  The
idea is to do the following to get my own font into my app:
    fontHandle = DmGetResource('Font',0x1000);
    fontPtr = MemHandleLock(fontHandle);
    FntDefineFont(129,fontPtr);
(user defined fonts start at 129,   0x1000 would be a resource ID)

The problem is in Codewarrior for windows, I can't figure out how to include
my .pft file as a binary resource.   It's not supported and Metrowerks is no
help.

How can I do this?
