Hy all

we have an iis active x control hosted on IIS 5.0 (W2K). One function
renders grafics into a temporary dc to build some custom images. We create
some special true-type-fonts with

ENV: WTL 7.1 -AX-Control build on VC++.NET 2003 without MFC

But except default fonts like Courier or Arial they wont be created.

Then replacement-fonts are substituted. On XP or W2003 server (development
environment it works, but not on the productive server (W2K, all SP,
IIS-Lockdown, Baseline Security Anlayser etc....)

Font is installed correctly. Native sample programs on productive machine
works but not in IIS loaded from a component

Could it be a security issue or something else to configure in IIS???

Any help is welcome!!

Jens
