This problem sounds to be related to optical character recognition except even more difficult if you're trying to detect text on an arbitrary bitmap.
I know very little about OCR but I do know that there are a couple of libraries which can be used from C#, namely Microsoft's 'MODI' and the open source 'Tessnet2'.
Here are some links if you want to check them out:
