<div>Ok,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Following Dan`s suggestion to ship & use a font without installing it, I came to a very straight-forward method for w32.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Tested & working.</div>

<div>It uses a Tcl Windows API extension. (600KB)</div>

<div class="">IMO the default cross platform font should NOT be Bold. As Dan said OSX users will most likely find it ugly, and it was not bold in Pd-extended nor is in Purr-Data.</div>

<div>I tested with bold as that is the default font weight for vanilla on Linux AFAICT.</div>

<div>No. See above.</div>

<div>I know the Mac solution. Deja Vu is usually installed on Linux systems and, if not, can be an install requirement by whatever package manager is being used. There is no need to distribute and install a copy of the font on Linux.</div>
