Bold white text on a black background using MS Sans Serif

Hi,
I am using Microsoft pirntdocument and printpreviewdialog and I draw a black rectangle using g.FillRectangle and then use g.DrawString to draw bold white text using MS Sans Serif on top of it. It looks fine in print preview and when printed to printer directly. But if I convert to PDF using the PDF converter the black rectangle is fine. But the bold white text prints as black text on a white background. This happens only for some fonts and only when the text is bold. It is fine with Arial font.

Thanks
Venu

Are you using the latest version 2.10e of the PDF Converter?

Also, I am not able to print bold text using fonts like MS Sans Serif and Courier correctly no matter what the color of the text is(not just white). When converted to PDF it has a white background overlaying any color on the document and ignores the bold. However Arial and Times New Roman work correctly.

Thanks
Venu
