weird kerning problem with DrawString

John Wood

For some reason whenever I use StringFormat with a trimming set to
EllipsesCharacter, when it does clip the string, it seems to reduce the
kerning (it squishes the letters together). Has anyone else seen this? What
can I do to stop that?

Thanks,
John
