First thanks for filling the bug. Now IIRC you talked (on the mailing-list)
about a large difference while this test case has a rather small difference
(1-3 pixels) in fact smaller than the difference between the two API calls used
on Windows.
Do you have another test case showing a larger diff ?
FWIW libgdiplus won't *ever* give the same results as MS GDI+. The point of the
functions are to report how much screen space the renderer requires to draw the
string. That may be different between Window and Linux because of:
- different displays (e.g. dpi affect calculation. I have 2 identical LCD
panels and their DPI are reported differently by Windows and Linux);
- different font versions (you may not be using the exact same Arial revision
on both systems);
- different renderer code (e.g. supports for hinting);
- different API assumptions (e.g. MS reports different values for
Graphics.MeasureString and TextRenderer.MeasureText)
and, of course,
- bugs :) this is where the values returned doesn't match the text we draw
[but, hopefully, that last one will get better with time]
