Currently I am implementing a graphic editor project using C#, my project should to have ability to display bitmap font. I plan to write a COM component in VC++ and send bitmap font as bitmap array to C# and implement a string render class. However my project leader thinks that the method will take to much time and want a easier solution. unfortunately, I don’t know any project which implements bitmap font for .net framework and GUI+. What do you guys think?
Thank you!

    It isn’t terribly difficult to create a MeasureString and DrawString that works off of a series of bitmaps (or a single bitmap). It is definately time-consuming, but doesn’t require advanced knowledge or intellect. Basically all you need to know is Graphics.DrawImage (for GDI+).

    There is nothing in the .NET Framework to simplify this, but XNA does. XNA might not be appropriate, but it’s worth having a look at. Check out http://creators.xna.com/en-US/. XNA uses the concept of “sprites” (which is nothing more than bitmaps) and a SpriteFont that is used to display text as a series of sprites.
