Hi, i'm trying to add subpixel rendering to poppler and i've found that 
letters are somewhat sharper but also much thinner, i know one is a 
consequence of the other, but what should be a reading aid ends up being worse 
since letters are too thin.

I'm attaching the rendering of a "o" and you can see none of the pixels of the 
top row are black, the values i get from Freetype are

7 25 57
94 131 164
188 205 217
227 233 230
223 213 198
175 146 113
74 35 10

so there are three almost black pixels but none really black.

I'm using FT_LOAD_TARGET_LIGHT | FT_LOAD_NO_BITMAP as parameter of 
FT_Load_Glyph and FT_RENDER_MODE_LCD as parameter of FT_Render_Glyph

I'm also calling FT_Library_SetLcdFilter with FT_LCD_FILTER_DEFAULT

Any idea of what i might be doing wrong?

Thanks,
  Albert
