RichEdit to Bitmap - Windows NT and Windows 98

I have an application that outputs the text from a RichEdit component to a
bitmap. When I run the application on an NT4 the text is perfectly
antialiased. When I run the application on a 98 the text is not antialiased.

Two questions:

1.) Why this difference in behavior between NT4 and 98?

2.) What can be done to antialias the text in 98?

Thanks,

Jim Davis

It seems to me it would be different because of the color depth
based upon the display adapter in the different machines.
