Embedding a font in delphi

Question

I\'m working on an app that requires a particular barcode true type font that is unlikely to be on the user\'s PC.

Can I somehow embed the font in the app, or do I

Answer 1

Yes, you can save it as a resource in the EXE file, and on user's pc, you can extract it as a file using a TResourceStream instance. Then you can call AddFontResource API function. At last, you should send a WM_FONTCHANGE message to all top-level windows in the system (Check Remark section of AddFontResource description in MSDN website).

If you need an example code, let me know.
