Can someone tell me how to install the x64 version of GDI++?
http://code.google.c...ki/InstallGuide

I downloaded ezgdi-dll-r28.zip but what do I do with the files inside?

There are no installer for ezgdi right now. Only a bare dll, check the file like ezgdi-dll-rXX.zip in download list Extract the zip, put easyhook64 or other easyhook dll in one of the directory in PATH, such as c:\windows or c:\windows\system32

Currently, only registry load are supported. | x64 Windows Installation howto:


* to install on x64 windows, use notepad to edit ezgdi-x64.reg, fix the path to both ezgdi-x86.dll and ezgdi-x64.dll
* if don't need to render 32 bit program, delete last 3 lines in reg file
* then import the reg file

Could anyone upload Ojalord's setup, or is that currently outdated? I'm having a problem with GDI in Windows 7.. if I use clear or light colored backgrounds the font on the desktop icons looks heavily pixalated and distorted. I don't use a specific .ini, just the default.
I've tried various fonts, pre-smoothed and not, but I always get the same result.
Any help?

That has been an issue even with Vista.

I see, was this solved in any way through a modification or do people simply not use clear backgrounds?

Does any know how, or if it is possible to stop the "tails" on some of the text being cut off when using GDI++.

Here's an example from deviantart.com



You can see the tail on the "g" is cut off. This happens in all web-browsers. It's the only reason I can't use GDI++. It annoys me too much.

I used to have that problem but It doesn't seem to happen to me any more with the latest version: http://free.flop.jp/...src/gdi0909.zip

I do have a new problem in that I can't seem to exclude any apps. Trillian Astra and GDI++ don't seem to get along too well and adding trillian.exe (or any other app) to [DenyModule] doesn't work any more Maybe I'm doing something wrong though.

Those using gdi++ / exgdi may be interested in another off-shoot, gdipp.

I wish i knew chinese :S :S :S

I'm keeping gdipp for the moment.

I started using ezgdi. I tried gdipp but for some reason it only affected some text and caused a bit of instability. ezgdi is basically the same thing though the setup is a bit different and the settings file is a little different.

May someone who is using gdipp show his/her config, please? Thanks.

This is what I came up with after a little tinkering with side-by-side comparison to safari set to medium smoothing.

Of course, you may want to tinker again yourself as LCD screens being different can produce some different appearances, or so I get the impression.
