Not rendering properly on Pidgin

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Which program triggers the problem? Specify the filename if possible.
Pidgin http://www.pidgin.im/

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch Pidgin with pidgin.exe excluded in gdipp's settings. Text should 
display properly, but without the smoothing effect.
2. Close Pidgin, then remove pidgin.exe from the excluded processes in gdipp's 
settings.
3. Relaunch Pidgin, and the text are not rendered properly.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The text is garbled.

What version of gdipp (including renderer)? On which operating system?
version 0.9.1 64bit, on Windows 7 64 bit.

Please provide any additional information below. Screenshots always help.
Pidgin is using the font set in Windows under Personalization. I've set it to 
use the Helvetica font in the screenshot provided. I've tested it using other 
fonts as well, such as Segoe UI, Arial, etc but they all end up with the same 
garbled text.

Pidgin is once of the applications that uses GTK framework as front-end. gdipp 
does not support rendering GTK applications currently. Please review issue 134 
for solution.
