i'm taking a guess but this is what i think you want... Font.New (fontSelectStr : string) : int
and Font.Draw (txtStr : string, x, y, fontID, Color : int)

you would use it like this:
code:
var font1:int:=Font.New("Arial:20:Italic,Bold")
Font.Draw("hey whats up",100,100,font1,green)


MOD EDIT: Had to fix up your sample code (typo on your variable) -Asok

oops sorry about that, had to go out right after i posted the message
like for variables.. say I have a variable for X which is a integer,
and i want to format it like the usual Font.Draw thing
the problem is that the Font.Draw command only sees to take Strings,
and not integers, so when i put hte variable in it gives me an error of 'wrong type'..

just wondering if theres a way to change the interger variable into a string variable or a way to format the integer variable on display.

use intstr() .. it converts integers to strings so you can use it in desperate times like these.. as an example:
code:
var font1:int:=Font.New("Arial:30:Italic,Bold")
Font.Draw(intstr(x),100,100,font1,black)
