Description

TFontDialogOptions is a set of TFontDialogOption values. These are the possible values of TFontDialogOption:

Value	Meaning
fdAnsiOnly	Displays only fonts that use the Windows character set. Symbol fonts are not listed in the dialog.
fdApplyButton	Displays an Apply button in the dialog, whether or not there is an OnApply event handler.
fdEffects	Displays the Effects check boxes (Strikeout and Underline) and the Color list box in the dialog.
fdFixedPitchOnly	Displays only monospaced fonts in the dialog. Proportionally spaced fonts are not listed, nor are TrueType fonts that do not have the fixed-pitch flag set in the style header.
fdForceFontExist	Allows the user to enter only fonts that are displayed in the dialog (that is, listed in the Font combo box). If the user tries to enter another font name, an error message appears.
fdLimitSize	Enables the MaxFontSize and MinFontSize properties, limiting the range of font sizes that appear in the dialog if these properties have values.
fdNoFaceSel	Causes the dialog to open without a preselected font name in the Font combo box.
fdNoOEMFonts	Removes OEM fonts from the dialog's combo box. Lists only non-OEM fonts.
fdScalableOnly	Displays only scalable fonts in the dialog. Non-scalable (bitmap) fonts are removed from the list.
fdNoSimulations	Displays only fonts and font styles that are directly supported by the font definition file. GDI-synthesized bold and italic styles (for bitmap fonts) are not listed.
fdNoSizeSel	Causes the dialog to open without a preselected size in the Size combo box.
fdNoStyleSel	Causes the dialog to open without a preselected style in the Font Style combo box.
fdNoVectorFonts	Removes vector fonts from the dialog's combo box; lists only non-vector fonts. (Vector fonts are Windows 1.0 fonts, such as Roman or Script, which resemble pen-plotter output.)
fdShowHelp	Displays a Help button in the dialog.
fdTrueTypeOnly	Displays only TrueType fonts in the dialog. Other fonts are not listed.
fdWysiwyg	Displays only fonts that are available to both the printer and the screen. Device-specific fonts are not listed in the dialog.
