Okay, now that's just weird. :| Garbling happens under WinXP as well. It seems to be related to LCD text settings. For as far as my limited testing took me, enabling ClearType will garble the second line. As soon as it is enabled/disabled (no need to reload/recompile), the second line changes.
Did some further testing: could it be that the wrong pixels are taking for AlphaComposite? I have the impression that the pixels drawn onto the screen are really just "test" but with each pixel repeated three times: [code] +++++++ + x + +xxxxx+ + x + + x + + x + + xx+ +++++++ ==> +++++++ + + + xxx + + + +xxxxx+ +xxxxx+ +xxxxx+ + + +++++++ [/code] Changing the LCD orientation (horizontal to vertical) also changes the pixel's positions, but they seem to have correct horizontal spacing, hence. In the horizontal case, if we could "just" take each third pixel, we'd get "test" back, I believe.
