Fixed font related methods
Related help topics: Module description
3ds Max uses fixed, non-anti-aliased fonts only when this is strictly required.
For example, its easier to ignore text written on top of a rendered image if the text has hard edges and it's displayed in a solid color. Thus, such text could be written with the font returned by the GetFixedFont() function.
In general, text displayed in user interfaces should use the font returned by GetUIFont(). Plug-ins should in general use the User Interface (UI) font related methods when displying text in traditional window based user interfaces.
