Hi experts, Is there a way to create some outlined text in a TCanvas, like in the attached image? I am using ROOT 6.30, and have looked around TText, TLatex and TPaveText with no luck. Thanks in advance, Lida [outline]

Some previous discussions:

Hi, I would like to know how do I add new fonts to root? Can I use unicode fonts, such as arialuni.ttf? It seem that copy a ttf file to /usr/share/root/fonts/ won’t work. I found that there are some arial*.ttf in /usr/share/root/fonts/, but fonts list in TLatex->SetTextAttributes do not shown any arial fonts, is that normal? Thanks. lihb

Add new font to root ROOT

I am wondering about how to add new font to the root. The most newest topic about adding new fonts is nearly 10 years ago in the https://root-forum.cern.ch/t/how-to-add-new-fonts/6732/9. And that topic says that this is a very hard work for root. Is there any update of root that makes adding new font possible or we need to wait for root7 ?
