Use this function to add one or more user fonts to LEADTOOLS. The font data can contain a single or many font types and this function can be called multiple types to add several fonts. LEADTOOLS supports both TrueType (.ttf) and OpenType (.otf) font formats.

This function allows a process using LEADTOOLS to use fonts without installing them on the operating system. Refer to LEADTOOLS Draw Engine and Multi-Platform Considerations for more information.

Note that fonts are added to the current draw engine. Therefore, an application must:

First, change the draw engine to be used by LEADTOOLS by calling L_DrawSetEngineOptions
Then, call L_DrawAddUserFontFromMemory to add the user font(s)

Use L_DrawAddUserFontFromFile to add a font stored in a disk file.

Call L_DrawClearUserFonts to delete all user fonts added to LEADTOOLS.
