Bug ID: 440985
Summary: Text tool now blurs bitmap fonts instead of rendering
them pixel-sharp
Product: krita
Version: 4.4.2
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Tool/Text
Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: silverw...@disroot.org
Target Milestone: ---
Created attachment 140733
--> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=140733&action=edit
An example of blurred vs. pixel-perfect (although with kerning issues) bitmap
font rendering. Left is Krita 4.4.3, right is Krita 4.3.0.
SUMMARY
In Krita 4.3.0, the text tool rendered bitmap fonts pixel-perfect, which is
great for pixel art. (There were kerning issues though, which got fixed when
the pixel-perfect rendering broke.)
In Krita 4.4.3, though, it's not pixel-aligned, which makes it look awful at
small sizes.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make a piece of text with the text tool.
2. Set it to a bitmap font, e.g. Terminus or Fixed.
OBSERVED RESULT
The text is blurry.
EXPECTED RESULT
The text is pixel-perfect.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I tried the nightly build last night (e89467b) and it was still happening
there.
