You can get a single character widths using MeasureCharacterRanges but it's
more hassle than using MeasureString.

Why don't you want to use MeasureString?

I'm rewriting an older function that convert String Array to GraphicsPath,
and this function don't have graphics Parameter for use MeasureString();

GraphicsPath* MakeSimpleText(String* Lines __gc[],Drawing::Font
*TxtFont,RectangleF Rect);

You can use CreateGraphics to get a Graphics object suitable for measuring
strings with. See the GDI+ FAQ for an article on how to get hold of the
Graphics object, when to use it and when to dispose of it.
