Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use the FontConverter to convert a Font to and from a string. This example is designed to be used with Windows Forms. Paste this code into a form and call the ShowFontStringConversion method when handling the form's Paint event, passing e as PaintEventArgs.

void ShowFontStringConversion( PaintEventArgs^ e )
{
   // Create the FontConverter.
   System::ComponentModel::TypeConverter^ converter =
         System::ComponentModel::TypeDescriptor::GetConverter( System::Drawing::Font::typeid );
   System::Drawing::Font^ font1 = dynamic_cast<System::Drawing::Font^>(converter->ConvertFromString( "Arial, 12pt" ));
   String^ fontName1 = converter->ConvertToInvariantString( font1 );
   String^ fontName2 = converter->ConvertToString( font1 );
   e->Graphics->DrawString( fontName1, font1, Brushes::Red, 10, 10 );
   e->Graphics->DrawString( fontName2, font1, Brushes::Blue, 10, 30 );
}
private void ShowFontStringConversion(PaintEventArgs e)
{

    // Create the FontConverter.
    System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter converter = 
        System.ComponentModel.TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(typeof(Font));

    Font font1 = (Font) converter.ConvertFromString("Arial, 12pt");

    string fontName1 = converter.ConvertToInvariantString(font1);
    string fontName2 = converter.ConvertToString(font1);

    e.Graphics.DrawString(fontName1, font1, Brushes.Red, 10, 10);
    e.Graphics.DrawString(fontName2, font1, Brushes.Blue, 10, 30);
}
Private Sub ShowFontStringConversion(ByVal e As PaintEventArgs)

    ' Create the FontConverter.
    Dim converter As System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter = _
        System.ComponentModel.TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(GetType(Font))

    Dim font1 As Font = _
        CType(converter.ConvertFromString("Arial, 12pt"), Font)

    Dim fontName1 As String = _
        converter.ConvertToInvariantString(font1)
    Dim fontName2 As String = converter.ConvertToString(font1)

    e.Graphics.DrawString(fontName1, font1, Brushes.Red, 10, 10)
    e.Graphics.DrawString(fontName2, font1, Brushes.Blue, 10, 30)
End Sub

Remarks

A type converter is used to convert values between data types. A type converter also supports property configuration at design time by providing text-to-value conversion or a list of values that users can select from. Access the FontConverter class through the TypeDescriptor class by calling the GetConverter method.

Note

In .NET 6 and later versions, the System.Drawing.Common package, which includes this type, is only supported on Windows operating systems. Use of this type in cross-platform apps causes compile-time warnings and run-time exceptions. For more information, see System.Drawing.Common only supported on Windows.

Constructors
