Letterspacing (tracking) with TextBlock in WPF?

Question

What is the best way to take note notes (tracking) using TextBlock in WPF?

I would have thought that TextBlock.Typography would take care of this, but it is not. What is the best approach?

It seems that this problem cannot be solved easily. You can google and find something like this http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/wpf/thread/789c3e1b-e3ae-476f-b37f-d93ef6d0cb7b/ (approach with glyphs). But taking into account the fact that String is an enumerated collection, sometimes you can solve your problem with markup as follows:

<Grid>
    <ItemsControl>
        <ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
            <ItemsPanelTemplate>
                <UniformGrid Rows="1"/>
            </ItemsPanelTemplate>
        </ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
        <ItemsControl.ItemsSource>
            <System:String>
                Hello World
            </System:String>
        </ItemsControl.ItemsSource>
    </ItemsControl>         
</Grid>

<Grid>
    <ItemsControl ItemsSource="{Binding SomeString}" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center">
            <ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
                    <ItemsPanelTemplate>
                            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" />
                        </ItemsPanelTemplate>
                </ItemsControl.ItemsPanel>
                <ItemsControl.ItemContainerStyle>
                        <Style>
                            <Setter Property="Control.Margin" Value="1,0,0,0"/>
                            <Setter Property="Control.Foreground" Value="#1E395B"/>
                         </Style>
                </ItemsControl.ItemContainerStyle>
        </ItemsControl>
</Grid>
