When the program starts I make the download of the font to a specific path.

It's

"C:/Videowall_INFO/fonts/MyFont.ttf"

then I try to use it in XAML like this:

FontFamily="C:/Videowall_INFO/fonts/MyFont.ttf#MyFont"

Am I missing something? Becasuse its not showing in Designer or Runtime.

  • But I need to download it every time the App Starts. – Mauro Caiado Apr 11 '18 at 10:55
  • Did you try putting this in: C:/Videowall_INFO/fonts/MyFont.ttf#MyFont and referencing with FontFamily="{StaticResource MyFont}" - in a little test Project there was no Exception thrown as long as the font is not referenced by the StaticResource and the file does not exist – dsdel Apr 11 '18 at 11:23

So I just found that the problem was the ".ttf" file that was corrupted after the download.

And this is the correct way of setting the path:

FontFamily="C:/Videowall_INFO/fonts/#MyFont"

Just removed the "MyFont.ttf" and it Works fine!

Thanks!
