How to load custom ttf font?

I'm not sure. It may depend on how much you want to do with the font. Being able to use it as a wxFont would probably be a major effort because as I understand it each of the platforms has different levels of support for this.

Darn. That is what I had in mind.

However using the glyphs in the ttf file as vector drawings or bitmaps might be doable with the help of a 3rd party lib like freetype.

That would be cool too. In fact, I'm just remembering why I recently needed this, and it was wanting to use a ttf for bitmaps (O ended up doing screenshots and making pngs out of them, but this would have been nicer!
