I picked Verdana for this test, though it does not show as stark a difference as some fonts I use routinely.
...
I find the vastly superior kerning of the latter overwhelms any other difference there might be.
For me the sharpness of the 10.0 (and 10.2Alpha5) is by far the overriding factor. I need to use small fonts when programming and in general want to get as much textual information on the screen as possible.
Then use the byte code interpreter. The rendering with the byte code interpreter for Verdana is even sharper than your first screen shot. Really.
Most likely I will make rendering with the byte code interpreter the default for certain list of fonts where it obviously gives superior results.
To test how it looks like using the byte code interpreter, put the following in your ~/.fonts.conf file: <?xml version="1.0"?><fontconfig> [...] <match target="font" > <edit mode="assign" name="autohint" > <bool>false</bool> </edit> </match> [...] </fontconfig> But there are fonts (though not Verdana) which look better if the autohinter is used. Therefore switching the autohinter off always as in the above example is not a perfect solution either. -- 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
