how to Create a System.drawing.font from  Autodesk.AutoCAD.GraphicsInterface.FontDescriptor

hi i can get a pathname of font from a FontDialog.

i put this information  :

Dim fontDialog1 As New System.Windows.Forms.FontDialog
                With fontDialog1
                    If IsNothing(StyleEncours) = False Then
                        'remplissage dialog avant display
                        .Font = New System.Drawing.Font(StyleEncours.Font, 10)
                    End If

                    If fontDialog1.ShowDialog() <> System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Cancel Then
                        'création dun style acad tmp pour récup du path de la font
                        Dim str As TextStyleTableRecord = New TextStyleTableRecord()
                        str.Name = "ee"
                        str.Font = New Autodesk.AutoCAD.GraphicsInterface.FontDescriptor(.Font.Name, .Font.Bold, .Font.Italic, Nothing, Nothing)

                        Dim Path As String = str.FileName
                        str.Dispose()
                        str = Nothing
                        If Path = "" Then
                            MsgBox("Désolé cette font n'est pas reconnu par Autocad" & vbCrLf & _
                                    "Font inutilisable, veuillez en choissir une autre", _
                                    MsgBoxStyle.Information, "Information utilisateur")
                        Else

 this partial code use "StyleEncours" for populate befo show the fontdialog.

"StyleEncours" contain the path of the font. ie : "c:\windows\fonts\arialb.ttf"

so if this var is not nothing i need to populate the font dialog with a font of windows but i can retrieve the correct name of the font.

this part not working :

.Font = New System.Drawing.Font(StyleEncours.Font, 10)

i thing i need to retrieve the name of font  for do this :

.Font = New System.Drawing.Font("ArialB", 10)

thx
