The Visual Fortran Graphics Library includes routines that print text in various sizes and type styles. These routines provide control over the appearance of your text and add visual interest to your screen displays.
This section assumes you have read Drawing Graphics Elements and that you understand the general terminology it introduces. You should also be familiar with the basic properties of both the SETWINDOWCONFIG and MOVETO routines. Also, remember that graphics programs containing graphics routines must be built as Fortran QuickWin or Fortran Standard Graphics applications.
The project type is set in the visual development environment when you select New from the File menu, then click on the Projects tab, and select Fortran QuickWin or Fortran Standard Graphics Application from the application types listed. Graphics applications can also be built with the /libs:qwin or /libs:qwins compiler option.
Font types and the use of fonts are described in the following sections:
