Load TrueType Font From Resource?
« on: June 26, 2013, 08:10:23 pm »
Is it possible to embed a TTF (TrueType Font) file in an application (resource file or direct embed) and then load the font from it? I'm looking for the most portable way to do this, but is it even possible?

Convert your file to an array of char embedded into a C++ header, then use Font::loadFromMemory to load it into a sf::Font.
