My favorite coding font, ProFont, does not show up in the list of fonts in Visual Studio 2010. Shows up fine in VS 2008 on the same box. Any ideas? I'm using Windows 7 with Visual Studio 2010 Premium.

Are you using the .FON (ancient bitmap-font format) version of ProFont? I know WPF does its own font rendering; it may be that FON fonts are no longer supported.
Grab the TTF version and I believe it should work.

Thanks, that did it. It doesn't look nearly as nice as it does in 2008. I think I'll stick with Consolas for 2010.
