Just hoping the is a quick way to obtain a collection of system fonts so that I don't have to manually type them all in.

Any ideas?
 
InstalledFontCollection

Google system fonts c#

Example:

Code:
using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Drawing.Text;
using System.Collections;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Data;

namespace fonts
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            InstalledFontCollection fonts = new InstalledFontCollection();
            foreach (FontFamily family in fonts.Families)
            {
                comboBox1.Items.Add(family.Name);
            }
        }
    }
}

You may get help by means of code here. Just recall what happens to a rat when he eats the cheese off a rat trap while you're Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V'ing that code as your own[/sub]
 
I wouldn't go that far but thank you :)
