Displaying text the same way no matter what the resolution is.

I have an app where the user can enter some text and/or pictures and it will
be displayed on a kiosk machine. Problem is the kiosk may be one of multiple
dimensions (always the same aspect ratio - 16:9). So I need a way to display
the text/pictures the same on all resolutions. I was converting the stuff to
flash before but am running in to problems so I'm looking to see if there is
a better solution.

Essentially - I need to be able to have a text/picture object look the same
regardless of the dimensions of the screen. So if it's a small screen, it
will be small, if it's a large screen it will be large. But it needs to do
it without distortion. And it should wrap in the same places.

If Flash the answer here or does anybody know of a better way to do this.

If Flash is the way - can anybody suggest a good library to create flash
from C# code programatically? I'm currently using Component One's Flash
object (It's an old version of the software) and it takes HTML as input.

TIA - Jeff.

Render what you want as an image on the server and render that image on the
client.
