Get List of Installed Fonts ...

Post by Gaev »

If you have upgraded to NeoBook v5.6 ... you can now get a list of installed fonts on a user's machine from within your NeoBook pubs.

I have developed a NeoBook Function ... called gkvGetFonts ... using the VBScript language supported in v5.6 of NeoBook ... that enables you to retrieve this list into a [variable] with just one command ...

Code: Select all

Call "gkvGetFonts" "TrueType" "[myFontList]"
The [variable] contains the list of entries ... separated by [#13] ... so they can be displayed in a ListBox merely by setting the List Items: property of the ListBox to the variable [myFontList].

You can download this Function and a demo pub from here http://www.scriptedlogic.com/neoFREE7.htm

Note that this facility may not work if your users are running older versions of Windows (e.g. Win 98 ) ... however, it has been confirmed to work on Windows 2000, XP and Vista.
