Remarks

Use the ConvertFrom method to convert a string containing a list of font names to an array of strings containing the individual names. Each font name in the string must be separated by a comma. For example, the string "arial, times new roman, verdana", converts to an array that contains the strings "arial", "times new roman", and "verdana". Notice that the commas are removed along with any white space at the beginning or end of the font name. White space in the middle of a font name is not removed.

Напомена

The context and culture parameters are not used in this version of the method; they are reserved for future versions of the method. You can optionally pass in null for these parameters.
