Use the method 'Graphics.MeasureString', for a given graphics object
context.

Thanks. Can i figure out the font-size for a string given the
measurements where it is supposed to go ? I have a rectangular area the
width and height of which is fixed. I need t fit some strings in to that
area.

Hello Karthik,
Check out the StringFormat class in GDI+ which can be used in DrawString
GDI+ function.
Regards,
Sujith.
