Post subject:  unable to build 1.30 due to GetFamilies deprecation
Using PDFSharp 1.30 but unable to compile the BuildAll-PdfSharp project due to an error in the deprecation of the System.Drawing.FontFamily.GetFamilies(graphics.gfx) function.

Error 1 Warning as Error: 'System.Drawing.FontFamily.GetFamilies(System.Drawing.Graphics)' is obsolete: 'Do not use method GetFamilies, use property Families instead' F:\Dev\PDFsharp\code\PdfSharp\PdfSharp.Drawing\XFontFamily.cs 268 18 PdfSharp

The MS advised workaround appears to be to use the System.Drawing.FontFamily.Families, but that assumes the current context, does not use the specified context, which might be a concern.

Here is the change I needed to make (VS 2008 SP1, Windows 7) to get a good compile

Line 268 of XFontFamily.xs commented out

//families = System.Drawing.FontFamily.GetFamilies(graphics.gfx); // error
families = System.Drawing.FontFamily.Families; // new

This is only a warning!
You can also turn "Treat Warnings as Error" off to compile the original source code.

You can solve the problem without turning off "Warning as error" this way:

Code:
#pragma warning disable 618
      families = System.Drawing.FontFamily.GetFamilies(graphics.gfx);
#pragma warning restore 618
