--- Comment #107 from Mike FABIAN <[email protected]> --- Created attachment 654949 --> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=654949&action=edit liberation-sans-1-2-fontforge-grid-fit-view.png Using "Grid Fit View" as explained here http://fontforge.org/charview.html shows that the byte code hinting in Liberation Sans 1 and 2 is very different. Left: Liberation Sans 1 Right: Liberation Sans 2 This screenshot shows the effect of the byte code "bending" outlines to make it fit to the grid. For Liberation Sans 1, this is done much more precisely and extrem as for Liberation Sans 2. For Liberation Sans 1, after the grid fitting, the "hole" in the 'g' has become narrower but both the left and the right vertical part of the "circle" align very exactly with vertical columns of pixels. therefore one has thin vertical lines which are very black. For Liberation Sans 2, the alignment to the grid is less precise, for example the vertical part of the "circle" on the left still ends up on the border of two vertical columns, so both columns get some grey ink, making this vertical line appear wider. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ fonts-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/fonts-bugs http://fonts.fedoraproject.org/
