Access to the system's fonts in WinRT

Question

I can not find any information on the topic. I need to read and interpret a font. But I cannot find out how I can read a system font file.

Answer 1

You can't. The %WINDOWS%\Fonts directory is not available to Metro style apps.

You can refer to the post http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-AU/winappswithnativecode/thread/dea8ab00-fa40-48c1-bd1b-19e06e7ac5cd for more information.
