@Dan
pdfontloader is working ok for our needs. We have the following:
`pure-data/msw/pdprototype.tgz` has an "tcl/tk-85-i386" dll
and
`pure-data/msw/pdfontloader-64bit-for-wish86.zip` has an
"tcl/tk-86-amd64" dll
They get extracted accordingly on Miller's builds. It also works when
building Pd with autotools that gets the i386:(wish85.exe tclsh85.exe)
from `pdprototype.tgz`

Howdy Windows peeps,
I wonder if the pdfontloader needs to be recompiled for TK 8.6+. I
believe the build distributed with Pd on Windows was built for Tk 8.5.

The font detection & loading looks like it's working fine via our
custom pdfontloader:

The font on Windows and Linux has always been bold:

What may have changed is how Tk calls the Windows API to do the
rendering. I would ask more of a Windows dev about this (Christof,
Lucarda, etc).
How does it look if you add "-font-weight normal" to the startup
flags and restart Pd? To confirm, the using font line should the
change to:
using font: DejaVu Sans Mono normal
Another thing to try: "-font-face Courier" then see if the rendering
is better with a native font for the system. If so, this could
indicate some issue or change with how we load a local TTF font file.

Turn log level to 4. What is the font debug info printed at start?

Subject: [PD] Pd 52.2 different font in console?
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
hi,
i just upgraded from 52.1 to 52.2 on Windows 10.
i noticed:
first: text in Pd-console looks much clearer.
then: in 52.1 (and before(?)) the font in the Pd-console was different
from the one in the patches.
now in 52.2 the font in the console and in the patches seems the same,
BUT the patches look like having an ugly bold version.
i was used to that, but of course now i would like to have the same
clear image as in the console.
