Two things to remember: 1) Don't use it with Gtk+-2.
Gtk 2 uses Xft1, and you will need to link at the same time with the two versions of the library. It's kind of "ironic", but by now you should choose: Antialias in your menu labels or antialias in your AbiWord documents. (for the record, I don't use Xft2 just because it's the latest. I need the functions to explore the unicode coverage of the font, and afair they're not disponible with Xft. If somebody finds a way to get insert symbol to work with Xft1 I will backport). 2) It's for STABLE, not for HEAD. I will update it for head as time permits, but by now my main target is STABLE. I will likely roll some unofficial binaries with Xft/fontconfig support, and I don't want to wait until the next version of HEAD. To enable the xft support, you will have to pass --enable-xft to configure. It will try to detect your Xft/fontconf version. You need Xft2. If everything's ok, at the end of the configure stage you should see something as Xft support enabled Cheers, ===== Joaquin Cuenca Abela [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
