I want to use anti-aliased fonts in a C # application. I read here how this can be done with the Paint event of each form:
public class SmoothingFonts : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
...
private void InitializeComponent()
{
...
this.Paint += this.SmoothingFonts_Paint;
}
private void SmoothingFonts_Paint(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs e)
{
Font TextFont = new Font("Verdana", 25, FontStyle.Italic);
e.Graphics.TextRenderingHint = TextRenderingHint.ClearTypeGridFit;
e.Graphics.DrawString("Sample Text", TextFont, Brushes.Black, 20, 150);
}
}
This can become cumbersome because we already have many forms. In addition, in each form we use several types of forms. Can I set the setting for TextRenderingHintall over the world?
EDIT 1
The given example, although it is outdated, as correctly indicated by nobugz , helped me understand that the best TextRenderingHintthat will be used in this system is the AntiAliasGridFithardware platform is closed, so I can assure that this is the best configuration for this system, it will be the best for all systems in which the application will be deployed.
TextRenderingHint ? Windows Embedded Standard ( Windows XP Embedded).

, XP TextRenderingHint, . , . :
HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\FontSmoothing {2 for activating font smoothing}
