subject: Using own fonts

Hello All!

Can I use my own fonts in standard windows and their controls? I mean
private fonts just loaded via GpiLoadFonts, not the fonts already present
in system. I _badly_ need to have russian letters in menus, buttons and
window captions _without_ changing system defaults, i.e. I cannot replace
dspres.dll with my own one. WinSetPresParam always returns Ok, but in case
if I try to set up one of the currently present fonts (Helv, Courier,
Times, etc.) titlebar, button or menu changes the look as I guessed, and in
case it was my font loaded via GpiLoadFonts titlebar or another control
ignores my settings and continues to use its system default font. I note
again, WinSetPresParam returns Ok in either case. Any suggestions?

Bye!
