@ Chris “Kwpolska” Warrick Thanks, that is a start anyway. a Pure-Python way was what I was wanting, not win32api stuff.
"C:\Windows\Fonts" The windows path proves valid. Works on XP, Vista, 7. Not sure about win8...? Don't have a mac handy, but the link should be enough to help write some code before testing. I don't own a mac, but IIRC macs come with python installed, so a trip to the apple shop might be in order. As far as linux goes, basically Ubuntu/Kubuntu(dirivs), Mandriva/Mageia, Mint, and some of the more popular distros is all I am really looking for. Checking for these is VirtualBox shouldn't be too hard with your instructions and platform.linux_distribution() Thanks again. Here is the 'Open Font License 1.1 (OFL 1.1)' Fonts I will be using. http://sourceforge.net/projects/sourcecodepro.adobe/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/sourcesans.adobe/ Also found these links that might help with pathing. http://www.fontation.com/feature/ http://www.yearbooks.biz/?event=FAQ.Detail&faq=3 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
