Excellent!
Thanks for the fast response.
For others, I have included my solution:
1. add the true type font to Files (Files.DirAssets) within the app
2. declare a font in the Globals or Process globals
Dim Cherokee As Typeface
3.
'set special fonts for non standard languages
Sub SetFont() As Typeface
Select Case MYLANGUAGECODE.ToLowerCase
Case "che" 'this is Cherokee
If Cherokee.IsInitialized = False Then
Cherokee = Typeface.LoadFromAssets("plantc.ttf") 'load the special font for this language
End If
Return Cherokee
Case Else
Return Typeface.DEFAULT
End Select
End Sub
4. For any control set the Typeface
Dim L As Button
L.Initialize("btn")
L.Typeface = SpecialFont.setfont 'set any special fonts
5. no additional libraries are required
