i am using b3d sdk and blitzmax and i seem to have hit a dead end, i use bbloadfont(FONT.SIZE,X,X,X) and get back a valid handle but when i set font nothing happens the font stays the same, it does take note of the size and other flags in bbloadfont, but carrys on using the same old fontface, can anybody shed some light on this. regards

I don't really know about the Blitzmax version but... Are you setting the Font with bbSetFont or Blitzmax's SetFont? Because the latter will not work.

thanks i found out the difference, in b3d i have to pre load the fonts into windows\font in max i can load the fonts on the fly.
