Ah, but I only have the Mac development platform. I guess that argues
for me to get the PC platform.
Which raises a couple of points:
1) I got tired of paying Macromedia for the right to develop on two
platforms. Every time Director upgraded, I had to shell out another $800
for the upgrade
Brad,
I dont think nothing is stopping you from copying your stack to a mac and
running it via a demo player...
Once the stack is made (on a PC for example), i dont think you need to
recompile it to run on Macs or Linux.
But i could be wrong...
cheers

2) As the development platform depends on the player, would it be
possible to create a limited development stack that would basically
allow the testing of commands (like you list below) that would be
interpreted by the player?

Check out the Enterprise edition. I believe it has support for all
platforms 'built in.'

I posted a message about this a few days ago. It has a call that

Doesn't the EXT external provide this functionailty? Maybe memory is

1. Load the font files as binaries into custom properties, probably

I'm creating a presentation and I need to be sure the user has access to
a Unicode font. I'd like to standardize on Bitstream's Vera font, which
is free and very good.
1) Is there any way to access the font dynamically without installing it
on the user's system? A while ago there was a thread
I remember the days long ago in Hypercard where you could install a
font as a resource in a stack, and it 'just worked', even though we
were warned not to for some reason.

Brad.
There are lots of resources. The docs are actually pretty good on
this point.
I wrote an eBook on the subject (it's for sale at the Rev online
store as Chapter 21 for, I think, $5).
I also gave a free online conference on the subject a while back. You
can download the stack
Thanks Chip, I'll see if I can get this going however, I can't get some of
the customers to agree to loading anything at all on their machines, yeah,

Bob,
Here's how I would probably go about this on XP..
1) Research what registry entries are changed in Windows when installing
a TrueType font
2) Suck up the font into your app:
set the uMyCustomFont of this stack to URL (binfile:C:/myfont.ttf)
3) On startup spit it back out:
a) find the
Hi Bob,
Y'know I'm pretty sure there's a way to install fonts w/out putting them
in the fonts folder. I know Adboe does it this way, and I've seen
utilities that do the same...perhaps it a function of the registry.
In anycase, I suppose you could always 'install and deinstall' a font at
