Parameters

context

A System.ComponentModel.ITypeDescriptorContext object that provides information about the context of a type converter. This parameter is not used in this method. It is reserved for future versions of this method. You can optionally pass in a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) for this parameter.

culture

It is reserved for future versions of this method. You can optionally pass in a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) for this parameter.

value

A System.Object that represents the source array of strings to convert from.

destinationType

A System.Type object that represents the data type to convert to. This parameter must be set to the string data type.

Return Value

A System.Object that represents a string containing a list of font names.

Use the ConvertTo method to convert an array of strings containing the individual font names to a single string containing a list of the names. For example, an array that contains the strings "arial", "times new roman", and "verdana" converts to the string, "arial,times new roman,verdana". Notice that commas are automatically inserted between the font names without any white space.

NoteNote

This converter can only convert to a string data type. The destinationType parameter must be set to the string data type.

NoteNote

The context and culture parameters are not used in this version of the method. It is reserved for future versions of the method. You can optionally pass in a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) for these parameters.
