Of course, this is a test of one instance each of the 256 glyphs (all with at least some ink IIRC, but many with very little coverage) in one serifed text font. In each case I tested, f < 1 when i < C where i is PointSize * dpi and C is 1400 for PK files, 20000 for gzip -9 compressed GF files, approx 13850 for bzip2 -9 compressed GF files and 5700 for uncompressed GF files. (Yes, PK hits superlinear sooner than GF does.) All of this is for 1-bit depth fonts. -JimC _______________________________________________ Fonts mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/fonts
