I don't know which fonts are chess fonts but have you tried just using them? The following works for me Style["This is a test of various fonts 0123456789", FontFamily -> #, 18] & /@ {"American Typewriter", "Arial", "Papyrus", "Playbill", "Webdings", "Zapf Dingbats"} // Column Bob Hanlon ---- Jason Ebaugh <ebaughjason at gmail.com> wrote: ============= Hello -> All, Is there any way to use the fonts available in the Format>Font menu as part of Style[]? I am writing a chess program that could really make use of the Chess fonts. However, it seems that these fonts can only be added on somewhat superficially, by changing the font of already generated output. I don't see a way for a function to display them directly, without a human being going into the Font menu. Thanks a10^6, Jason Jason Ebaugh, PhD.
