Edmond,

Check your full MSDN help for the topic ChooseFont, which is the dialog the rest of Windows apps use to select fonts. It can be told to include printer fonts. Assuming you have VisualStudio, you could create a C++ DLL, called from VFP, that wraps the call to the dialog and pass the result back. There's two examples on my website for creating C++ DLLs.

>I have a user with a printer that has a font cartridge with fonts that he wants to choose from when making mailing labels. My application uses GETFONT() to offer him a selection of available fonts for him to choose from but he says that his printer's internal fonts are not showing on the list.

>I do not have a printer with internal fonts to test this but, assumeing that this is correct, is there a way to include internal printer fonts when letting a user choose?
