I have a WinForms TreeView. The TreeView represents a summary of more detailed views and one of the visual cues I am using is to make a node's text bold or regular.

I'm reading CSS the definitive guide by Eric Meyer 3rd edition. His section on font-sizes (page 107) states that font size determines the em box. If I do: span { font-size: 10px; } Does it set exactly the horizontal and the vertical of the em box to 10px? He refers to the measurement as being the distance between baselines. I guess ...
I have a PC notebook running Win Vista, when I first bought it, certain Chinese fonts won't show up, I could only see rectangles, but I played with the control setting for a while, changed some properties, and now it shows Chinese fonts correctly, but I don't remember what I did. Now some of my programs displays both English and Chinese...
I am working on a cross platform library that needs to draw text using fonts into a device context. The width of the text combined with the user selected font is proving difficult to calculate. In Windows we use BOOL GetTextExtentPoint32(HDC hdc, LPCTSTR lpString, int cbString, LPSIZE lpSize) this works without problem. On Mac OS X we u...

I have been reading a lot of documentation on how to create an internationalised ASP.NET application, using C# 3.5. They all seem to give the general impression that font fallback and font linking will make font choice a non-issue. However, the documentation I have seems to imply that it will be fine on Windows, but doesn't mention othe...
