Two things are necessary:
. Use an LCD rendering mode (FreeType offers four of them).
. Do proper colour filtering (see the documentation of
FT_Render_Mode for some details), which is of extreme importance
to get good visual results.
Note that Microsoft holds patents on certain filtering techniques
which you might explore by defining
FT_CONFIG_OPTION_SUBPIXEL_RENDERING. However, you can do your
own, different filtering which is not protected by patents.
