No, It's really a complex application with library and a few projects.
But by checking and unchecking and selecting Standard or ClearType many
times while not changing anything else I can verify what I said.
The font looks like it's been printed twice, with poor registration.
Once blue and once red.
Thanks a lot for trying

In control panel/Display/Appearance/Effects if :
'Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts' is checked and
ClearType is selected in the combobox (no problem if Standard is
selected)
I get a crazy font display in parts of my picturebox.
Do you have any info regarding this?
Thanks for any help!
You don't have a small sample app that demonstrates this do you? I
have been experimenting and can't get the error to reproduce.
Thanks,

I've had plenty of problems with ClearType displaying correctly, but
not in any of my applications. I notice plenty of font "smearing" in
MS Access 2007 forms and Powerpoint.
Have you tried forcing the picturebox to refresh itself by calling
PictureBox.Invalidate() or PictureBox.Refresh()? I not sure if the
picturebox supports them, but you could even experiment with
Control.SetStyle and tell the picturebox to use
(Optimized)DoubleBuffer or maybe Antialiasing - perhaps one of those
will clear up the font.
By the way, how are you putting the text into the picturebox? Are you
printing it with GDI DrawString or using a label etc...
Thanks,
