I think that the problem could be something to do with the font itself. &nbsp;The issue here is whether the older win98 version of the font includes characters that you want. &nbsp;Another possibility is that you might try using UNICODE mappings instead, although the support for these in delphi isn't too good (well in delphi 6 anyway).

The font is one that I got off the internet and incorporated into the program so it should be the same for all.

I recently designed an app, on my xp laptop, that uses an Ancient Greek font. For those who don't know Greek has a lot of extra characters that couldn't possibly be incoporated onto a keyboard so I used the &quot;character map&quot; from xp to add these to my program from the font I used. So far so good, the characters are displayed perfectly on xp and the app runs well. However when I tested the app on my PC, which runs Win 98, the special characters were not displayed correctly. <br />
<br />
Please help - is it because the two keyboards are mapped differently? I just don't know.<br />
<br />
Thanks Siwiher.

Keyboard Mapping

A font is a particular size, weight and style of a typeface. Each font is a matched set of type, one piece (called a "sort") for each glyph, and a typeface consists of a range of fonts that share an overall design. With the advent of digital typography, font is frequently synonymous with typeface, although the two terms do not necessarily mean the same thing. In particular, the use of "vector" or "outline" fonts means that different sizes of a typeface can be dynamically generated from one design. Each style may still be in a separate "font file" -- for instance, the typeface "Futura" may include the fonts "Futura roman", "Futura italic", "Futura bold" and "Futura extended" —- but the term "font" might be applied either to one of these alone or to the whole typeface.
