But what about fonts which are not normally found on systems. I have this funky font I want to use for my Silverlight 4 App.
How do I include it in my app(eerr..rather xap) and make sure that everywhere the website goes, it loads with this font ?
In blend under the properties tab, got to the text properties section. there you should be able to see the a check box for ‘Embed font’. Just check that checkbox for your custom font and it will automatically get embedded.
P.S. I am currently using Blend 4 RC.
Sorry for the REALLY late reply, but I figured it out, I am doing everything with code behind and not using Blend. In that case I just had to use the FontFamily and set it as resource.
