Tim... Please explain to me what there is to like about Rawls. His worldview is about as anti-libertarian as you can get, as Nozick ably showed long ago.

I figured it out. It worked when I specified "Bickham Script Pro Regular" instead of "Bickham Script Pro" as FontFamily. It looks that Avalon Beta 1 running in Windows XP SP-2 uses a different set of font names than Avalon running in Longhorn that you presumably use (name id 1 vs. 16). Might be worth looking at.

Regards,
Adam

I use Windows XP SP-2 where I've installed the Avalon Beta 1 and the corresponding WinFX SDK. I'm testing the XAML samples in XAMLPad but somehow cannot get most of my system-installed fonts to show up in the XAML. works fine but does not (the font is, of course, installed in Windows XP's system folder. The only way I actually got Bickham Script Pro to render *somehow* in Avalon is but of course this is not the idea.

Is there some additional magic I need to do so the XAMLPad output sees all the fonts installed on my system? Alternatively, is there a way to reference URIs in the FontFamily attribute?
