I do have one small question, why is the autohinter so ugly? (Is this on

I agree with Werner---I think the quality of the autohinter, and FreeType's
rendering in general, is excellent. In fact, when I first saw good.jpg and
bad.jpg screenshots, I thought they were reversed.  The text in the "
good.jpg" is to me too thin and jagged---it looks like a monochrome bitmap
font. The text in "bad.jpg" is dark and smooth, which I like.

There are clearly differences in opinion as to what the best rendering looks
like.  You should be aware that such differences exist when asking your
questions.
