GDI+ Advice Sought

I would like to build a component that uses GDI+ to emulate an 80x25
character screen (Apple II). Printing of the characters is not a problem.
But printing inverse characters is proving to be a daunting task. By
inverse I mean that the background & character colors switch places for that
character only. Also, i'm going to display characters at various places on
the screen (vtab & htab) and such.

Somebody out there must be a guru at this...has anyone done any type of
terminal emulation using GDI+? Any guidance in where to look for good info
is appreciated.
