Can you post the smallest program that suffers from this problem? I can't reproduce it like this -- the antialiasing looks fine:

    using System.Drawing;
using System.Drawing.Imaging;
using System.Windows.Forms;

public class Program
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap(100, 100, PixelFormat.Format32bppArgb);
        using (Font font = new Font("Arial", 10, GraphicsUnit.Point))
        using (Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(bmp))
        {
            Rectangle clip = Rectangle.FromLTRB(0, 0, 100, 100);
            g.Clear(Color.Red);
            TextFormatFlags tf = TextFormatFlags.Left;
            TextRenderer.DrawText(g, @"C:\Development\Testing\blag", font, clip, Color.White, Color.Transparent, tf);
        }

        Form form = new Form();
        form.BackgroundImage = bmp;
        Application.Run(form);
    }
}
