[Bug]: Krypton Toolkit causes low-quality text rendering in Stimulsoft preview window

[PWagner1]

Summary

Krypton Toolkit causes low-quality text rendering in Stimulsoft preview window

Description

Original post

_I'm using Krypton Toolkit in my WinForms application for styling. However, after adding any Krypton control (even just a KryptonLabel), I noticed that the text rendering in Stimulsoft report preview windows becomes blurry or low-quality. This happens only in the preview window, while the actual report print output is fine.

Even if I don't modify PaletteMode or any other styling properties, as soon as a Krypton control is added to any form in the application, the text rendering in Stimulsoft reports degrades.

I verified that:

The problem only affects Stimulsoft preview, not standard WinForms controls.

This happens even in forms where no Krypton control is added directly — just referencing the Krypton library or using a Krypton control anywhere in the project seems to cause it.

What part of Krypton could be interfering with GDI+ text rendering? What should I search for in the Krypton source code to isolate this behavior? How should I solve this issue?_

Reason, some controls do not properly save/restore Graphics.TextRenderingHint, which can leak into third-party controls.

Steps to Reproduce

Use Krypton with other controls, such as Stimulsoft.

Expected Behavior

To work in harmony with other controls.

Actual Behavior

Text rendering issues.
