It might be a real issue, but my app has the need to measure strings too and I've found that MeasureString is often quite wrong. The MSDN docs indicate that it often is too, and recommends using Graphics.MeasureCharacterRanges instead. You might consider trying that approach as a work-around. I know that I've removed all references to MeasureString in my app in favor of MeasureCharacterRanges which is far more reliable for me.

I'm using MeasureString to accomplish this. With mono under windows this is working fine, under linux the resulting string is always way too long. Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround? Thanks a lot for your help, B.
