So what if an application requires another font? Silverlight also supports custom fonts, and the steps to use a custom font are as follows:
*Add the font file (.ttf) into your Silverlight Project by selecting Project/Add Existing Item.
*Set the Build Action of the .ttf file to Resource
*Note the Font Name (the embedded name in the font file). If you are not sure what this is, double-click the .ttf file in Windows Explorer and the Font Name will be displayed at the top of the Font Viewer.
*Inside your XAML element (TextBlock, TextBox, etc), set the FontFamily in the format "FontFile#FontName" - For example, to set to a Font named Times Square inside a font file named TIMES_SQ.TTF, you would use:
{TextBlock FontFamily="TIMES_SQ.TTF#Times Square" FontSize="32" TextWrapping="Wrap" Text="This TextBlock is using a Custom, Embedded Font." /}
