Code listing won't work

[tom-clik]

This code listing wont' work. There is actually no reference to the Private font collection after you've added the font and you'll just get a generic font.

Not only does the listing not work but it's not obvious how to use a Private font collection after you have added it.

As far as I can tell you have to loop over the families and match the name.

Hello. Thank you for pointing this out. It's definitely not a great way to showcase private collections with fonts not installed by the system. It should be using new Font(fontFamilies[j], 16, FontStyle.Bold, GraphicsUnit.Pixel); to create each font.
