How to set font from file in Pango and Mono -


i have simple application prints text , determines size in pixels.

static void main(string[] args) {     application.init();      var screen = screen.default;     var layout = new pango.layout(pangohelper.contextgetforscreen(screen));      layout.fontdescription = new fontdescription();     layout.fontdescription.family = "times new roman";     layout.fontdescription.size = units.frompixels(18);      layout.settext("my text");      int width;     int height;      layout.getpixelsize(out width, out height);      console.writeline("{0} - width:{1} height:{2}", layout.text, width, height);     console.readline(); }

but want use own font. how can load own font file , use in pango in mono?

short answer is: can't use uninstalled fonts pango. :(

longer answer is: can, if using fontconfig backend (pangofc; eg on linux). in case need make few calls fontconfig before using pango, make fonts available fontconfig. however, don't think fontconfig has mono bindings.

so, i'm afraid you're out of luck here.
