You can draw the superimposed text last, using a mode that only draws the text but keep the background transparent. SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT) will do the trick.

The above superimposed text will block whatever behind it because the superimposed text is opaque. To make a true superimposed text, you have to make them semi-transparent. To achieve this, you need to use a certain way to blend the text to the existing drawings. This is more complicated. You may need to create a couple of image buffers to conduct these operations, and print the final result.

As Richard MacCutchan pointed out, you can print your superimposed text first, then render everything else. When you render text, make sure the background mode is set to transparent. That way, only the text itself is rendered, the background will be see-through.

Your problem is probably caused by the fact that the background mode is not set to transparent. Check the documentation out: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd162965(VS.85).aspx[^]
