NOTE: Most of the IM snippets have been tested on IM version 6.3.5 There may be some differences if you are using the code on other versions.

Fonts Installed view - Anthony 15/6/2008

This shows all the installed fonts with the name written using the actual font. There were acouple of problems with this example. 1/ The ' had been missed out in the preg_match and 2/ I have found that the array generated with font and type are different. I tested it with a version below 6.3.5 and it worked but would not work in versions above that. I have modifeid the code to work with both versions but it will need to be tidied up.
