I coded a font class based on Nehe''s tutorial on 3D outline fonts. When I tried to print something using the class, the characters it outputs are one character before the ones inputted. I would normally just alter the display list base in my font build code, but every other instance of the font class in the same application output correctly. My code follows along exactly with what the tutorial says, and the problem only occurs in one font object at a time, so I dont know where to begin. If you have ANY possible solutions I can try, I would greatly appretiate it. Thanks

Hmm...I realized something else. Every font object uses the last font created in the program. CreateFont() and wglUseFontOutlines() are both passed the HDC. Can theree only be one outline font for each DC?
