Sorry, I surely don't know a way to have your form use a font without installing it on the user's machine.

I have made a BMP file of some text and then included that in a project and displayed the image of what looks like text on the screen, but it can't be changed -- either by the user or by the program.

1) using Notepad / Wordpad / or some text editor

2) select a font you wish to use

3) type the text

4) Press [PrtScn] ( Print screen ) button

5) Open Paint ( I actually use HiJack )

6) Paste the clipboard into the current screen

7) Crop to size ( drag the + cursor around the area you want, and press
CTRL+X to cut, then paste where you want it...

8) Save as xxxx.BMP

9) Inside Visual Foxpro, edit a form, select the 'Image' object and
choose the xxxx.BMP as the Picture property.
