Re: Disabling ClearType programmatically?

MSDN documents CLEARTYPE_QUALITY as separate from ANTIALIAS_QUALITY, for 
Windows XP and above. You can also set NONANTIALIASED_QUALITY which will 
make the font not anti-alias (works on all Windows).

A font needs to be selected into a physical device DC before it will do 
anti-aliasing. Thus, if you create a font, and only select it into a 
DIBsection DC, it will draw without anti-aliasing. You can then upload 
this text to a texture or whatnot to render to screen (or draw the 
DIBsection). It's roundabout, but documented, and works.

Cheers,
