How do I retrieve the list of available fonts from my OS?

[NJKirchner]

I am attempting to make a native LV font dialog pop-up so that the user may select their own font/size/style/etc.
So far I can not find a way to retrive the list of available fonts from the OS. Any help?

This will be cross platform, so I was looking for a pure LV solution.

Hello,

To retrieve the list of available fonts from the Operating System, you can use the Windows Registry Access VIs to determine which font types have been installed. This vi can be found on the Controls Palette by going to All Controls -> Advanced -> Windows Registry Access. These vis allow you to open, close and manipulate the registry. There is great example of accessing the fonts in the OS that can be found at:
