I haven't tried it, but you could try using
PrivateFontCollection.AddMemoryFont(). Based on signature, something like
the following?
// load of font resource and retrieval of it's length performed previous
GCHandle gcHandle = GCHandle.Alloc(loadedFontResource,
GCHandleType.Pinned);
try
{
privateFontCollection.AddMemoryFont(gcHandle.AddrOfPinnedObject, length);
}
finally
{
gcHandle.Free();
}
I don't know if the font resource needs to stay pinned--the documentation
doesn't detail that; so be sure to watch for that.
