Syntax
'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Property FontCount As Short
'Usage

Property Value
Type: System.Int16
Returns a Short.
Remarks
The FontCount property is equivalent to the Length property of Families in the .NET Framework.
Note
Visual Basic 2008 supports only TrueType fonts; the value returned by FontCount may be different than the value returned in Visual Basic 6.0.
Note
Functions and objects in the Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.Printing.Compatibility.VB6 namespace are provided for use by the tools for upgrading from Visual Basic 6.0 to Visual Basic 2008. In most cases, these functions and objects duplicate functionality that you can find in other namespaces in the .NET Framework. They are necessary only when the Visual Basic 6.0 code model differs significantly from the .NET Framework implementation.
Examples
The following example demonstrates how to retrieve the FontCount property value.
Dim Printer As New Printer
MsgBox(CStr(Printer.FontCount) & " fonts are available.")
