Something wrong in text drawing

**WojTec**

I'm using TCanvas.TextOut() to output text on bitmap. Attached image better describe problem (please zoom it).

Simply, I want to text in pen color (green) without this terrible effect (red).

Set your specific Fontname with TCanvas.Font

**WojTec**

I already did it, Arial. Do you mean problem is with font?

It has nothing to do with the font. It’s just windows’ subpixel rendering (ClearType) which smoothes out the edges of your text and makes it appear more defined. This technology was introduced with Win XP and is turned on globally by default since Vista.

You can however disable ClearType for a specific canvas.

Hm, for me don't working, ClearType is as was.

It should work, though. Post some code, please.
