Summary

This concludes the brief tour of GDI+. The .NET base class libraries provide a rich set of classes and APIs for dealing with the graphical interface, fonts, and images. In addition, built-in support for translation, scaling, and rotation on GDI calls makes tasks such as rotated fonts a snap. For more in-depth information regarding GDI+, I recommend C# and the .NET Framework: The C# Perspective, by Robert Powell and Richard Weeks, also from Sams Publishing.
