I could be wrong once again, but isnt hintint useful for low resolution on screen, whereas it doesn't play any noteworthy role in the area of 600dpi upwards? Also, isn't hinting simply patented by Apple, at least in the US and in the UK? I know people have added "auto-hinting" to FreeType recently, but that didn't match the real hinting in quality (unsurprisingly). Robert -- Robert Roebling, MD <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
