Installed Font-Family List

Hello all,

I have an application that requires me to do a simplified RichText Editor but I need to get the installed fonts on the server to show up on the clients drop down box.

The reason I'm not using a rich text editor is becuase I'm not actually configuring the text on the Textbox but a set of properties that will be applied to the text in the server, so I don't really need the resulting HTML but the properties that are being set with the controls.

Is there a way to accomplish this via ColdFusion or I have to list them manually.

If I have to list them manually, does anyone know where I can find a list?

Any other suggestion is welcome.

Thanks in advance,

Firebait

    There is a function getFonts() in the CFIDE.adminapi.runtime CFC.  This might help.

    thank you,

    That worked like a charm. For those who will like to see the code... here it goes:

    <cfscript>
       adminObj = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator");
       adminObj.login("password");
      
        admin = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.runtime");
        fonts = admin.getfonts();
    </cfscript>

    <cfdump var="#fonts#" label="Fonts">

    Thank you.
