FontList.Item property - Developer Area

API Documentation > CorelDRAW > 2020 > FontList > IVGFontList

FontList.Item property

Gets a reference to a specified font, in base 1

Syntax:

Property Get Item(ByVal Index As Long) As String

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
Index	Long	Specifies the font by its index number

Remarks:

The Item property returns the name of the specified font.

Item is the default property of the FontList class, and its reference can be omitted when you are accessing items in a FontList collection. For example, FontList.Item(2) is the same as FontList(2) - they both reference the second font object in the collection.

Examples:

The following VBA example checks whether the Arial font is installed.

Sub Test()
  If Not FontInstalled("Arial") Then
    MsgBox "Font 'Arial' is not installed on your system"
  End If
End Sub
'---- The following function determines if the given font is installed
Private Function FontInstalled(Name As String) As Boolean
  Dim b As Boolean, n As Long
  b = False
  For n = 1 To FontList.Count
    If UCase$(FontList(n)) = UCase$(Name) Then
      b = True
      Exit For
    End If
  Next n
  FontInstalled = b
End Function
