    Does anyone know a way to disable the ClearType font rendering via a system function? We render a lot of text (monochrome) into memory bitmaps and dibs and it takes forever. If we disable ClearType via the control panel the process is very, very fast but the users screen looks like crap. Our apps execute on both XP and Vista. The user wouldn’t even mind if the screen looked bad during the process and reverted back to cleartype after the process. Any ideas? Thanks in advance
