This should do the trick

 

 

Dim fnt As New Font("Arial", 20, FontStyle.Bold)
e.Graphics.DrawString("test", fnt, Brushes.Black, 10, 10)

My cheap solution (you don't have a create a new font for) would be just to pass the form's Font to .DrawString

 

e.Graphics.DrawString("test", Me.Font, Brushes.Black, 10F, 10F) :)

This would be better than creating a new font everytime you use drawstring though, but you could keep fnt in a public place so that you don't have to recreate it as well.
