Dear list!

Is it possible to use a font in a Cocoa app that is not istalled on the
system? Let me explain...

I want to create a LCD display in my app, so I need som sort of LCD font (I
am open for suggestions) but I want it to only be a part of my app so no
other app can use it.

I haven't had occasion to do this in quite a long time, but if I recall correctly you can just put the font in question in your app's resources folder, and access it by name like any other font.

There are an awful lot of public-domain Adobe Type 1 fonts out there, so it shouldn't be too hard to find what you want.
