I've noticed a rendering discrepancy between Freetype and the Windows font engine. I'm comparing output from Freetype 2.5.5 and Windows XP's native rendering.
The font in question is Tahoma 12pt rendered at 96 dpi. Note the bowl of the lowercase 'a' differs between the two in the attached image. IMHO Freetype's rendering isn't quite as nice. I'm not sure if this qualifies as a bug, but to my eyes, it does seem to look wrong. It's amazing how a one-pixel difference can sometimes be so immediately noticeable. If this isn't a bug, is there a way for me to 'tune' the hinting to match the results produced by Windows XP's native rendering? .lewis
