Hi,

have a look at this tutorial. It could help you..

kp
------------------------------------------------------------Neo, the Matrix should be 16-byte aligned for better performance!
thank you ,kovacsp
but the tutorial is the dx8,and the font->begin(),->end() is Vanishes.(I think so)

could you give me a simple example,
Here is the code that works !!!

D3DXCreateFont(RenderDevice::lpDevice,20,0,1,1,true,
DEFAULT_CHARSET,
OUT_TT_ONLY_PRECIS,
DEFAULT_QUALITY,
DEFAULT_PITCH,L"Arial",&pFont);
RECT r;
SetRect(&r,0,0,100,100);
pFont->DrawText(NULL,Str,-1,&r,DT_LEFT,D3DCOLOR_XRGB(255,255,255));

RECT x={ 0,100,0,100};
D3DXCreateFont(g_pd3dDevice,25,12,500,0,0,0,0,0,0,"Times New Roman",&font);
font->DrawTextA(NULL,"aaaaaaaaaa",-1,&x,DT_TOP|DT_LEFT,D3DCOLOR_ARGB(255,255,0,0));
font->Release();


Is that copy and pasted straight from your code's "main" function? You should be initializing your D3DXFont object once in your startup routines, and only releasing once you're completely done with your D3DXFont object, which will likely be right before you exit your program. The only piece of that code that should be in your "main" function is the actual drawing of the text. I'm assuming your parameters are valid.

EDIT: Also, have you called ID3DXFont::Begin() before rendering and ID3DXFont::End() after rendering your text?
ID3DXFont::Begin()
why i can't see it ?
this's my code :

LPD3DXFONT font = NULL;
D3DXCreateFont(g_pd3dDevice,25,12,500,0,0,0,0,0,0,"Times New Roman",&font);

and

font->Begin() is valid!

???????
