Ok Thanks for that Werner, I will test mainly using those 2 args, plus the original instructed truetype.
Also, i would like to test this with fonts that are 'industry standard' of good manual TT instructing. I have the Droids and Ubuntu, but am thinking to seek permission to test on some proprietary fonts too. Obvious would be from MS to test a few Windows System Fonts (as i have those), but there may be even better candidates. Anyone here have any contacts they could use to get me a few test fonts, plus permission to test? :) -v On 1 Jul 2012, at 22:07, Werner LEMBERG wrote: >> >> In theory, what difference should there be under which render >> settings? > > First of all, I'm not sure whether the selection of the three > rendering modes really works as expected.
