Fonts Linking Registry Settings (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
The following registry key links a base font to a link font. In this code example, the OS design developer selected MSGothic, a Japanese–specific font, when building the run–time image. When searching for a character, the base font is searched first followed by the linked font. This enables you to support a larger variety of characters in a font without switching.
IF LOCALE=0409
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink]
"Arial"="\\Windows\\msgothic.ttc,MS PGothic"
"Microsoft Logo"="\\Windows\\msgothic.ttc,MS PGothic"
"Times New Roman"="\\Windows\\msgothic.ttc,MS Gothic"
"Tahoma"="\\Windows\\msgothic.ttc,MS PGothic"
"Courier New"="\\Windows\\msgothic.ttc,MS PGothic"
"Symbol"="\\Windows\\msgothic.ttc,MS Gothic"
"Kino MT"="\\Windows\\msgothic.ttc,MS Gothic"
The following registry key specifies the characters to skip in the base font in favor of the linked font.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\FontLink\SkipTable]
"Tahoma"="005c,00a5,007e,0391-03c9,2026,2116,221a,25a0-25ff"
The following registry key sets the end user–defined character (EUDC) font for the system.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\EUDC]
"SystemDefaultEUDCFont"="\\Windows\\eudc.tte"
ENDIF LOCALE=0409
