Well,
I do understand your problem, but don't think that this is the right
solution. Why should a chat client know anything about a font which
displays the text? I would rather see an iChat solution or anything
like Fire, ICQ and others have....
Simply let the user choose font for displaying text or use a default
one..

Hi!
I'm trying to brigde a REALbasic (so carbon) chat application with my
cocoa chat client. the problem is that a font in carbon has a
different name than in cocoa. what I mean is that in cocoa everything
is splitted into font/family/etc. (and bold/italic etc) but in carbon
it's just "Copperplate" and "Copperplate Light". So when a message
from the carbon app arrives with the font name "Copperplate Light" my
cocoa client won't handle it because there's no font exactly named
"Copperplate Light" than rather a font object "Copperplate" with
family/style or whatever called "Light". Is there some sort of
converter for such things? Like a method which returns an NSFont
object?
Cheers, Thilo
