One of the things I couldn't help noticing while working on ScalePane is that text does not scale well. The characters themselves are rendered perfectly well at the new size, but the inter-character spacing is all wonky. It varies from font to font. It's not terribly noticeable with Pivot's default font (Verdana), and Lucida Sans is not bad. But I can't use either of those fonts, as they don't support all of Unicode (in particular, Asian fonts). So my app uses the Java generic SansSerif, and it's quite noticeable there.
In contrast, as you can see from the ViewBox demo screencap I did the other day, WPF has no problems scaling fonts gracefully. So is there some bug in Pivot/Java's font rendering engine?
