it sounds cool but i don't HOW!

err imo you cant do this unless the user sends you the font cause
A) You can copy anything from his pc without his consent.
B) Messenger sends info as to the text and the font name and your pc parses it and uses the font (if you have it). If you dont then it uses a default font. This is how the msn messenger worked last i checked so im assuming the same would be true for wlm.

So NO this is not possible (afaik)

Alternatives,
A) ask the user to send the font
B) make a script which the user can run when you ask for his font and this script will initiate the file transfer.

The latter, though sounds good, stil requires your contact to have the script. Meaning you could basically rather ask the font name and search it (if its rather common/famous) or just tell the user to send it to you via a msn transfer

but... if your friend had a non windows std font msn shows it as arial oder times new roman i don't know... so msn writedown the font infos (somewhere)

I don't have a DLL to do this, but you'd have to watch for incoming headers in a conversation. Then you'd need to read the font, color, and style out of the headers. From there you'd need to encode those all in binary and put them into Messenger's Font setting in the registry. Then you'd need to close and reopen the chat window(s) to apply the change.

hmm
yes if i ask him then it is not funny
then can i steal the nickname and psm and pic manual too

yeah it sends the font name in packets of information. Whats the point of getting only the name?
You could straight forward go ahead and ask your contact ... that would actually save a lot of time

it is usefull

so u can clone ypour partner completly

Hi,

I think Messenger download the font otherwise Messenger couldn't 'write' it on the chat window.

It's usefull but add a DLL just for this...


My first post !

It doesn't actually download their font... All it does is get the name of their font and display it as that font in your window.

Just as an aside, you wouldn't need to have it installed for them to see it - you'd just pass back the same font name that they'd sent you and it should display correctly for them, though not for you.

well i think that the script is useless without stealing the font... it just steals the nick name... but we can't fool the person we r talking to without the font...
are u going to fix it?

No because i don't know how to do this sorry
