Because Windows CE does not support the OleCreateFontIndirect function, MFC for Windows CE supports the m_pFont data member differently than it is supported in standard MFC.
The Windows CE version of the IFontDisp interface supports the same font properties, though not all the font property values, as the Windows-based desktop implementation supports. The following table shows the allowable data types for each font property in Windows CE.
| Font property | Supported values |
|---|---|
| Name | VT_BSTR |
| Size | VT_CY, VT_I2, VT_I4 |
| Bold | VT_BOOL |
| Italic | BT_BOOL |
| Underline | BT_BOOL |
| Strikethrough | BT_BOOL |
| Weight | VT_I2 |
| Charset | VT_I2 |
