C# Class ARCed.Helpers.FontHelper

Static class for loading and creating Fonts in memory without the need to have them installed.

In order for a memory font to be drawn on a control, it must be rendered with GDI+, so "SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault" must be set for the application, or "UseCompatibleTextRendering" for individual controls.
