You could conceivably load the font (via the Font Manager), copy the handle so the Font Manager wouldn't dispose of it on FMShutDown and thereby keep it around - but you'd also have to patch QDStartUp to call SetSysFont with that font handle again. QuickDraw defaults to a Shaston 8 (well, actually a ROM) system font every time it's started up. -- ============================================================================ Matt Deatherage, Developer Technical | The opinions expressed herein are Support, Apple Computer, Inc. | not those of Apple Computer, and Personal mail only, please.
