depending on what you want to achieve you could go the "hard" way :
install system wide hooks for the relevant GDI function calls and just
filter based on the hdc what drawing commands are relevant... this way you
get the text displayed without any conversion from pixel to text ( which btw
would effectively mean you implement an OCR ! )...
