TextRenderingHint enumeration

Specifies the quality of text rendering.

The TextRenderingHint type exposes the following members:

Field	Description
SYSTEM_DEFAULT	Each character is drawn using its glyph bitmap, with the system default rendering hint. The text will be drawn using whatever font-smoothing settings the user has selected for the system.
SINGLE_BIT_PER_PIXEL_GRID_FIT	Each character is drawn using its glyph bitmap. Hinting is used to improve character appearance on stems and curvature.
SINGLE_BIT_PER_PIXEL	Each character is drawn using its glyph bitmap. Hinting is not used.
ANTI_ALIAS_GRID_FIT	Each character is drawn using its antialiased glyph bitmap with hinting. Much better quality due to antialiasing, but at a higher performance cost.
ANTI_ALIAS	Each character is drawn using its antialiased glyph bitmap without hinting. Better quality due to antialiasing. Stem width differences may be noticeable because hinting is turned off.
CLEAR_TYPE_GRID_FIT	Each character is drawn using its glyph ClearType bitmap with hinting. The highest quality setting. Used to take advantage of ClearType font features.
