Initializing font picker in Firemonkey -


i have font picker in app developing - third party component filled @ run time list of fonts present on end user's computer.

how initialize font picker when i have no knowledge @ time of programming app of end user's system?

is there technique similar used on website, can specify list of preferred fonts, , if none found, fall on generic?

i know windows , mac both have default font hardly understand concept. default font (e.g. segoe on recent windows systems, san francisco on recent mac systems) guaranteed present? can user remove default? if so, default font redefine font present?

i'm struggling phrase question clearly. want initialize font picker sensible. can't set arbitrary index in user's font list because might ridiculous. if set reasonable arial or helvetica, how can sure there?

perhaps ideal initialize font picker operating system's default font how that? seems particularly mysterious on mac default known .applesystemuifont , haven't found way convert real font name!

maybe i'm trying ask how other people initialize font pickers?

apologies badly formed question. i've searched many hours , can't find helpful.

ps question broader firemonkey app being developed in firemonkey i'm posting here.
