How to access IDWriteLocalFontFileLoader method in c#

Question

im using DirectN in my project, everything else works fine, i can use DWriteFunctions class to create a factory, except i can't find a class to access IDWriteLocalFontFileLoader interface to use the method inside. i googled a lot but i just don't know how to do that

Answer 1

You need to do this:

• get an IDWriteFactory using DWriteCreateFactory function .
• call IDWriteFactory::CreateFontFileReference with a font localpath CreateFontFileReference(localpath, ...). This will get you a IDWriteFontFile reference.
• call IDWriteFontFile::GetLoader this will get you a IDWriteFontFileLoader reference.
• QueryInterface that reference for a IDWriteLocalFontFileLoader. It should world since it was loaded from a local font file. The file pointed by the path must exists.
