But Red Hat was exploiting a side effect and thusly augmenting the font scaling factor. ;-) > > 3) Should we remove embedded bitmaps from Kochi Gothic and Kochi Mincho > > if not really necessary? > > Gtk1,Gtk2 and Qt3 applications don't use embedded bitmap fonts normally. > Both antialiased OOo and non-antialiased OOo are cool, > but it's a bit strange only OOo use embedded bitmaps. Indeed, I requested more info about that. AFAICS, Xft (qt3 et al.) doesn't use embedded bitmaps if we are antia-aliasing or doing transformations on the glyphs. So, there weren't any problem per se with those applications. In the mean time, Giuseppe stripped down embedded bitmaps from Japanese fonts. They are available here and should work without any OOo trick: <http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~ghibo/ja/> PS: I really want the freetype2 fixes in. On the other hand, I could make a new OOo but that's probably too late at this stage to fully regression test. :-( Bye, Gwenole.
