A while back there was talk about font resources.

To summarise, there were two problems:

1) Create an EXE (.FON file) with no code it it, just font resources as
   recommended by MS.

2) using AddFontResource to get at 'em.

well..

1) I tried this, using FONTRES.ARC from Online (for Windows 2.0) which has a
   "null" asm file to linkto produce an exe so that rc can hook in the fonts.
   I had the same link5.1 problem ..... any ideas anyone? What's the answer?

2) I thought ... stuff it, I'll put my fonts in my DLL, as they are reasonably
   private to what my DLL is doing. So I do a AddFontResource in my LibMain
   to make them available after load time as follows;

    nf = AddFontResource(MAKEINTRESOURCE(hInstance));   // something like that..

   and I still get a BIG FAT 0 from AddFontResource.

   The fonts are definitely in the DLL because WRT can see them (but not edit
   them :-(  ).

   Anyone got any clues with AddFontResource????

Wasn't anything on this on OnLine either...

Help! Summary of mailed replies will be posted.

PS Thanks for the replies to the NetBios problem.
