I'd be very happy with just a custom browser build - say something KHTML based maybe - that has great font rendering and kerning. It would make Linux so much nicer to use. OpenOffice, Gnome and a PDF viewer would be next up on my list for improved font handling. I don't think it's going to be perfect system-wide, however, if I'm understanding the limitations properly - but maybe there's at least room for improvement?
<off topic, shameless plug> You may want to look into MuPDF. It does not do subpixel color filtering, but has unhinted, fractionally positioned text rendering, in a very light package. http://ccxvii.net/apparition/ Only windows binaries for now (but portable source). Make sure to get the stable version if you check out the source. </> _______________________________________________ Freetype mailing list Freetype@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/freetype
