https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=227794 ------- Comment #18 from bobf@bfarmer.net 2006-12-12 11:03 MST ------- I guess it is subjective about "how visible" it is with AA on, but to me it's very visible (see the above attachment). I didn't understand how it would have gotten past QA, but I think you partially clarified that--if you don't install the commercial addons, Albany AMT won't become your default font. I think most users will install the commercial addons though, because they want things like Flash and Acrobat Reader, etc? I tried the Albany AMT font in Windows, went through each point size in Microsoft Word, and never saw the problem, so there's a good chance it's a bug in FreeType then? Anyhow, I don't need a workaround for myself, I already have one (autohint turned on at pixel sizes <= 11 for Albany AMT), was just reporting this so it might not turn off potential future users of SuSE when they login and are immediately greeted with screwy characters... As for the Microsoft fonts, I don't install them because I think they look horrible with FreeType's AA on (they are great fonts if you want to turn off AA though). Albany AMT and DejaVu Sans both look great with FreeType AA, but Albany AMT has this issue, and I had an issue with DejaVu Sans where it was screwing up the style on some web pages (it looks like its geometry doesn't really match Arial's, unlike Albany AMT). But this is off-topic now... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
