interesting how many people feel peeved with bad typography but seldom
squeal. you can find screenshots at the freetype.org site. i'd recommend
people to download even the more recent versions, and to read about the
modules and autohinter modules to understand how and why to get finer
displays of fonts.

its worth a read.
