Nothing special, just GetDC(), and I get same results than calling it on 
main window =>


In Main window WM_CREATE :

LOGFONT lf = { 0 };
				SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETICONTITLELOGFONT, sizeof(LOGFONT), &lf, 
FALSE);
hFont = CreateFontIndirect(&lf);
SendMessage(hEdit, WM_SETFONT, (WPARAM) hFont, FALSE);
				
OldEditProc = SetWindowLong(hEdit, GWL_WNDPROC,(LONG)(WNDPROC)NewEditProc);
PostMessage(hEdit, WM_USER, (WPARAM) hFont, FALSE);



in NewEditProc :

case WM_USER:
{
	TEXTMETRIC tm;
	HDC hdc = GetDC(hWnd);
	HFONT hFontOld = (HFONT)SelectObject(hdc, hFont);
	GetTextMetrics(hdc, &tm);
	int halfwidth = tm.tmMaxCharWidth / 2;
	SelectObject(hdc, hFontOld);
	ReleaseDC(hWnd, hdc);
}
break;
