Re: DrawString failing to write accented characters, VB.Net

Hmmm, I'm still interested to know why this didn't work. I've tried a few
different ways and It seems to work fine for me vis-a-vis normal characters
but I must admit I haven't tried the accented ones.

I'll have to dig out some code this weekend (I'm mobile at the moment) and
have a play.

Cheers for the advice, Bob. I gave it a go with Georgia, but had the
same problems. In the end, one of the other guys in the office
suggested we bin the GDI+ method, and use sIFR instead. It achieves the
same visual effect, but doesn't rely on fonts being on either server or
client machines, nor does it harm accessibility as it's doing an
equivalent to the image-replacement technique I was doing with the
generated images.

Regards,

Matt

TTF viewer is limited. Try it with Georgia, it's a serif TNR equivalent
which is better constructed and has all the accents.
