.NET Forum / .NET Framework / New Users / June 2006Font representation
Hi 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.

Both DrawString and DrawText don't take as a parameter char width or char spacing. Ain't I right? > You'll have to be more specific.

I've found this interesting: http://wesnerm.blogs.com/net_undocumented/2006/06/text_mess_in_ne.html -- Barry Signaturehttp://barrkel.blogspot.com/ Hmm... Text measures became identical. But a font became... bold or something. But it was really interesting, thank you! >> Is there any method to draw text (using Graphics) that looks like in MS >> Word?
