ezgdi aims to provide gdi++ alike advanced font rendering for 64-bit applications on Windows.
This project is originated from gdi++, which depends on Detours. Detours is a great library, but it is not freely available for 64bit applications, which is the reason why gdi++ can't render 64-bit application on amd64 version of Windows 7/Vista.
Similar to Detours, EasyHook also provides Windows API hooking feature, which is essential to gdi++. And more importantly, EasyHook is an opensource project that supports 64-bit application. If we replace detours related codes in gdi++ source code with Easyhook equivalent ones, we can build a gdi++ DLL for x64 platform, which supports 64-bit applications.
However, ezgdi is not the only project providing gdi++ alike font rendering for Windows. Other programs like: gdipp, and dwType also support 64-bit applications. You can also check these projects.
ezgdi project is still in alpha test. It may cause application crash occasionally, or making system unbootable. Thus should only be used for testing purpose.
