Dynamically resizing font to fit space while using Graphics.DrawString

Question

Does anyone have a tip whereas you could dynamically resize a font to fit a specific area? For example, I have an 800x110 rectangle and I want to fill it with the max size f

I don't want to bash against saaeds solution which is probably pretty awesome, too. But I found another one on msdn: Dynamic Graphic Text Resizing which worked for me.

public Font GetAdjustedFont(Graphics GraphicRef, string GraphicString, Font OriginalFont, int ContainerWidth, int MaxFontSize, int MinFontSize, bool SmallestOnFail)
{
   // We utilize MeasureString which we get via a control instance           
   for (int AdjustedSize = MaxFontSize; AdjustedSize >= MinFontSize; AdjustedSize--)
   {
      Font TestFont = new Font(OriginalFont.Name, AdjustedSize, OriginalFont.Style);

      // Test the string with the new size
      SizeF AdjustedSizeNew = GraphicRef.MeasureString(GraphicString, TestFont);

      if (ContainerWidth > Convert.ToInt32(AdjustedSizeNew.Width))
      {
       // Good font, return it
         return TestFont;
      }
   }

   // If you get here there was no fontsize that worked
   // return MinimumSize or Original?
   if (SmallestOnFail)
   {
      return new Font(OriginalFont.Name,MinFontSize,OriginalFont.Style);
   }
   else
   {
      return OriginalFont;
   }
}
