True-Type Fonts

[Jeff Law]

I'm having considerable difficulty getting a LED/LCD style font to work in
VB.Net (on a Button).

The font that I want to use (a Corel-sourced one) will work in VB6, but not
in VB.Net. It says that it is not a True-Type font, when clearly it is such.

I've downloaded several other LED/LCD fonts and none of these work either
(although they do in VB6).
Any ideas?

Font support is extremely poor in dotnet.

This free led font works

as do several others from the same site (not all of them though).
