Infinality would be great. However, could we please take care not to run into this bug? https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=494764 MacPorts obviously ships ${prefix}/share/ghostscript/9.10/Resource/Font (I just checked), so we're fine, but I'd like to keep it like this. Not being able to print is a pretty big deal. A further question, René. I have only used infinality on Gentoo, and there we have this awesome eselect [fontconfig|infinality|lcdfilter] tool: root@valery~# eselect infinality list Available styles: [1] debug [2] infinality [3] linux [4] nyx [5] osx [6] osx2 * [7] win7 [8] win98 [9] winxp [0 running job(s)] {history#10006} 3:41:55 14-06-24 root@valery~# eselect lcdfilter list Available styles: [1] custom [2] default [3] infinality * [4] infinality-classic [5] infinality-nudge [6] infinality-push [7] infinality-sharpened [8] infinality-shove [9] linux [10] nyx [11] osx [12] ubuntu [13] vanilla [14] windows-7 [15] windows-7-light [16] windows-xp [17] windows-xp-light [0 running job(s)] {history#10008} 3:42:16 14-06-24 root@valery~# eselect fontconfig list | grep -i infin [27] 52-infinality.conf * How would the configuration be done on OS X? AFAIK, eselect mainly creates symlinks, but could as well also do $MORE_MAGIC. I've never looked into that. Obviously, infinality can be tweaked to quite some display options, which is great, but I'm not quite sure how to make that easily user configurable. Mihai
