Ok, cool.
I add the previous code links here for us to remember: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms533820(v=vs.85).aspx http://code.activestate.com/lists/tcl-core/8158/#sthash.qJEhQALT.dpuf<http://code.activestate.com/lists/tcl-core/8158/#sthash.qJEhQALT.dpuf> Mensaje telepatico asistido por maquinas. ________________________________ From: Dan Wilcox <danomat...@gmail.com> Sent: Monday, February 13, 2017 8:48 PM To: Lucas Cordiviola Cc: Miller Puckette; Pd-List Subject: Re: DejaVu Font: Shipping & using on W32 Cool, good to know that in theory it works. I also found a related solution which uses a different extension do the same thing: http://wiki.tcl.tk/22262 However, I’d say that requiring a tcl/tk extension may not be the best overall solution since historically Pd has avoided requiring anything beyond the base tcl/tk. A possible best approach is take the example C code for the forum post and make a *tiny* custom extension that is built only on Windows and loaded by the tk gui in order to load the private font. I don’t think we can simply add the font loading code to the core itself since it’s a separate process from the gui. In any case, this is something I can look into after I put together a triple boot machine to test some things on different platforms, including the vanilla autotools build on win.
