Is it possible to turn text into an image? What I want to do is overlay a picture on top of a DirectX game. Basically I want my own menu overlayed on top of a DirectX game. The easiest way to do this would be to turn a block of text into a graphic then just overlay that one graphic. For starters I read something in one of my books about using the Print method for displaying text in a picture box; but I don't see the Print method as one of the methods of a picture box. If I can do that, can I save what's in the picture box as a graphics file?
