Re: Font rendering and blurry fonts

Hi Jan,

something changed between F24 and F26 (even F25) regarding font rendering and I can't figure out what it is. On F24, fonts were crispy clear with full hinting and antialiasing. On F25+, fonts are quite blurry even with the same hinting and antialiasing settings. I'm using XFCE and didn't change any settings. I didn't upgrade, but reinstalled F26. I would like to fix this because it's killing my eyes. Any idea what has changed or what to install/remove/reconfigure to bring the old rendering back?

There was a similar thread on the users list a few weeks ago:

Maybe the effects of the freetype v40 truetype interpreter is what you're seeing and forcing the v35 interpreter as mentioned will help?
