The sample also demonstrates using the ChooseFont() and PrintDlg() common dialog boxes provided by the common dialog box library. The sample allows the user to select a font and display a line of text to the screen using that font. Also, the user can print the same line of text to a printer selected through the PrintDlg() common dialog box.
