Description

Copies the properties of another TFont object.

Call Assign to set the properties of the font to match the characteristics of the Source object. If Source is another TFont object, Assign matches the font characteristics of the source. Assign does not copy the PixelsPerInch property, so this method can be used to copy a screen font to a printer font, or vice versa.

If the Source parameter is not another TFont object, Assign calls the inherited method so that the font can be copied from any object that can assign font properties in its AssignTo method.
