True, that's what they say.
I suggest you try it out and see if there's Glyph manipulation.

Set the TextRenderingHint property of your Graphics object:
g.TextRenderingHint = TextRenderingHint.AntiAlias;

See how it's displayed.
Then remove it and compare the two.
Even though it's already visibly apparent, I would like to urge you to print the two results and compare them.
In my humble opinion, the AntiAlias touches the Glyph.
But I could be mistaken.
If I am mistaken and somehow I seem to have missed what the default does as opposed to what AntiAlias does, then please inform me.
Don't forget to add an informative link, not just for myself, but for others coming across this problem.
Thanks in advance.

Edit:
I indeed stand corrected.
Here's a link explaining how it works:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms534404%28VS.85%29.aspx

By setting the TextRenderingHint to AntiAlias, you kill the default corrective Glyph hinting the Graphics object does by itself.
Quote:
"TextRenderingHintSystemDefault
Specifies that a character is drawn using the currently selected system font smoothing mode (also called a rendering hint)."
Quote:
"TextRenderingHintAntiAlias
Specifies that a character is drawn using its antialiased glyph bitmap and no hinting. Stem width differences may be noticeable because hinting is turned off."

Thank you Covean for this insight
