i see it is not necessary to copy fonts to the folder of the source code.
specifying the path is possible.
font = FontLoad("c:\windows\fonts\" & fontfilename)

this is really a great contribution to fb.

i never knew what was involved in ttf and now we have otf to look forward to.

fonts are all about kerning and white space and a whole lot more so i'm finding out.
