Name
GenericFontFamilies
Synopsis
This enumeration lists the three generic font families.
Systems can have wildly different sets of fonts installed
(particularly in cross-platform environments). By specifying one of
the generic families, you can retrieve a
Monospace
, SansSerif
, or
Serif
font appropriate to the current platform,
regardless of what might actually be present. For example, the
SansSerif
font could be Arial on one machine and
Helvetica on another.
public enum GenericFontFamilies { Serif = 0, SansSerif = 1, Monospace = 2 }
