Hi


I would like to use postscript (*.pfb, *.afm, *.pfm) fonts instead of the true type fonts that are installed in my system. I have some true type fonts activated in type manager, but if I use their name in this code...

graphics.DrawString("Test", New Font("mypostscriptfontname", 30, FontStyle.Bold, GraphicsUnit.Pixel), Brushes.Black, 75, 5)

it doesn't work, instead it use Arial. Is it possible to use other fonts than ttf?

Regards
