I don't have an earlier screenshot, but here's how mine look now: http://www.iwamp.com/suse/10.2UglyFonts.png
That screen shot is not directly comparable to the screen shot posted by Randall R Schulz. Randalls screen shot apparently uses sub-pixel hinting, your screen shot does not.
Its like the auto hinter has gone haywire and is adding extra thickness to the lines of the fonts or something. The lowercase u in the first firefox tab is a great example.
The autohinter of the current version of freetype does render most glyphs a lot bolder than before. I still think that is better than rendering only the diagonals very bold and all vertical and horizontal lines not bold as it was the case in SuSE 10.1 with sub-pixel hinting switched on. See http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=170067 Anyway, most of the fonts which are discussed here (Microsoft fonts like Verdana, Agfa Fonts, Déjà Vu fonts, ...) have good TrueType byte code instructions, using the byte code interpreter for these fonts instead of the autohinter seems to produce far better results. I'll try to disable the autohinter for these fonts *if* the byte code interpreter is compiled into freetype2. Currently the byte code interpreter is compiled into our freetype2 package. -- Mike FABIAN <mfabian@suse.de> http://www.suse.de/~mfabian 睡眠不足はいい仕事の敵だ。 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
