Reverse engineering ftw! Look at the XP version of the function and make your own! :)

Please tell me what you need as I could have a class for you, or if Oleg wants to add WYSIWYG text drawing to XTP then drop me an email as we have already written our own WYSIWYG drawtext which gives same results for any device unlike windows function calls.
