Font representationHi all!
Is there any method to draw text (using Graphics) that looks like in MS Word? It has another parameters like spacing or char width. There's an idea that it's caused by differences of GDI and GDI+. But what to do with it? Thank you in advance for any comments. Best regards, A. Dzizenko. You'll have to be more specific. You can draw text in all sorts of ways. For
example, the Graphics.DrawString method has several overloads that take a StringFormat instance as a parameter. The StringFormat class is used to tweak the formatting of the string being drawn. The TextRenderer.DrawText method has several overloads that take a TxtFormatFlags parameter that allows tweaking of the text being drawn. -- Show quoteHTH, Kevin Spencer Microsoft MVP Professional Chicken Salad Alchemist I recycle.

Text measures became identical. But a font became... bold or something. But it was really interesting, thank you!
