There was a download of GDI++ 8.1.2009.211 on the developer's website when we last checked. We cannot confirm if there is a free download of this software available. This free program is an intellectual property of 2ch. We recommend checking the downloaded files with any free antivirus.
The following versions: 8.1, 8.0 and 1.0 are the most frequently downloaded ones by the program users. The program lies within System Utilities, more precisely System Optimization. The default filenames for the program's installer are gdi.exe, gdippInject.exe, gdippManager.exe, gdippMonitor.exe or gditray.exe etc.
From the developer:
gdi .dll provides better quality by overriding some API functions of gdi32.dll, such as TextOut(). When the function is called, it draws the text up to 4 times larger to a back buffer temporally and tranfers it to a display after resampling with interpolation. This behaiviour might be similar to the shareware called SmoothType, which is written for old Macintosh. The screenshot is an example which shows M 2P IPAG in 9 points.
You may want to check out more software, such as GDI Invite Filler, GDIView or Deleaker Add-in for Visual C++, which might be similar to GDI++.
