+# How to: Draw Text with GDI
+With the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.TextRenderer.DrawText%2A> method in the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.TextRenderer> class, you can access GDI functionality for drawing text on a form or control. GDI text rendering typically offers better performance and more accurate text measuring than GDI+.  
+  
+> [!NOTE]
+> The <xref:System.Windows.Forms.TextRenderer.DrawText%2A> methods of the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.TextRenderer> class are not supported for printing. When printing, always use the <xref:System.Drawing.Graphics.DrawString%2A> methods of the <xref:System.Drawing.Graphics> class.  
+  
+## Example  
+ The following code example demonstrates how to draw text on multiple lines within a rectangle using the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.TextRenderer.DrawText%2A> method.  
+  
+ [!code-csharp[System.Windows.Forms.TextRendererExamples#7](~/samples/snippets/csharp/VS_Snippets_Winforms/System.Windows.Forms.TextRendererExamples/CS/Form1.cs#7)]
+ [!code-vb[System.Windows.Forms.TextRendererExamples#7](~/samples/snippets/visualbasic/VS_Snippets_Winforms/System.Windows.Forms.TextRendererExamples/VB/Form1.vb#7)]  
+  
+ To render text with the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.TextRenderer> class, you need an <xref:System.Drawing.IDeviceContext>, such as a <xref:System.Drawing.Graphics> and a <xref:System.Drawing.Font>, a location to draw the text, and the color in which it should be drawn. Optionally, you can specify the text formatting by using the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.TextFormatFlags> enumeration.  
+  
+ For more information about obtaining a <xref:System.Drawing.Graphics>, see [How to: Create Graphics Objects for Drawing](how-to-create-graphics-objects-for-drawing.md). For more information about constructing a <xref:System.Drawing.Font>, see [How to: Construct Font Families and Fonts](how-to-construct-font-families-and-fonts.md).  
+  
+## Compiling the Code  
+ The preceding code example is designed for use with Windows Forms, and it requires the <xref:System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs> `e`, which is a parameter of <xref:System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventHandler>.
