[VW.7.4.1] Displaying Fonts on a GraphicsContext

Hi,

I'm running VW 7.4.1 on a Windows XP machine and I'm trying to display a (Windows) Font set containing special characters (i.e. no actual fonts but images of chess pieces or images of playing cards) on a graphicsContext. However, these fonts (i.e. the images) do not display correctly. I get a black square in stead of the actual image.

Does anybody have any tips (or preferably some example code) on how to get these fonts to display correctly?

Regards,

Ron

You might try to load AllEncodings from the preview\unicode drirectory and try again. If this does not help, you will need a Unicode VM with some more font work we are currently working on.
