Do you mean anything else besides this? https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2007/06/12/font-smoothing-anti-aliasing-and-sub-pixel-rendering/ Do you maybe have any objectively checkable arguments for or against cleartype or for that matter for or against adobe style? > I tried the Go fonts in acme, but reverted to Lucida Grande. For me with fontsrv Lucida Grande looks more crisp than Go Regular as well. Was that your reason for changing back or something else? thanks, Gergely Födémesi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.

Re: [go-nuts] Go fonts for linux (plan9port) acme?
on mac (and I suppose linux too) you can use fontsrv to extract the plan 9 font files as acme sees them. on my mac I did: $ fontsrv -m font $ acme -f font/GoMono/12a/font here are screenshots of GoRegular and GoMono in 12a: https://imgur.com/a/7xnGrmx I will send you privately a tar of GoMono/12a which can be used directly with acme. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.

Window's font rendering is simply wrong. Linux's is very similar to macOS's. I tried the Go fonts in acme, but reverted to Lucida Grande. -- Aram Hăvărneanu -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.

[go-nuts] Go fonts for linux (plan9port) acme?
I know rog has already asked about this before and I am not sure if it's feasible or not, but I ask, maybe someone has already thought of a good resolution: I'd like to use Go fonts on acme (plan9port linux), but fontsrv(4)'s antialiased output is rather blurry at least compared to Windows' Cleartype rendering. (Without aa it's almost unreadable.) (I don't have a mac, so I can't compare with acme (plan9port) on macos.) How do you use Go fonts on linux? or Do you maybe have a nice 10 or 11 point version of Go proportional fonts in font(7) format? or Can you maybe think of a vague draft how to generate these fonts on windows using windows' Cleartype renderer? or Does acme on macos with Go fonts look ok? What's the difference? Assuming fonts for acme are not fontsrv generated on macos, is there a way to capture that output somehow and generate font(7) fonts? or Any other idea, how to have nicer Go proportional fonts for acme on linux? thanks, Gergely Födémesi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
