Add support for PrivateFontCollection
Please add support for PrivateFontCollection.  When the program is deployed to a location where it does not and cannot install system level fonts (for various reasons), it makes an application built with Telerik Reporting volatile.  

I submitted a ticket due to a conflict we ran into.  Telerik's  response was to install the fonts on the system.  However, the system controllers response is "this it why PrivateFontCollection was invented...you have the control to use any fonts you want."  As a result, a developer has to either give up Telerik (ex. for DevExpress which supports it) or change the deployment entirely which seems utterly ridiculous.  Due to some project constraints, we changed deployments in hopes of it being rectified.

I'd like to second Randy's question. Any timeline on this feature? I'd love to be able to use custom fonts without having to install them on the host, which is not an option in my case.

Thanks!

First off, thank you for approving the feature request.  Is this feature slated/targeted for a particular Q release?
