There some fonts which Xft renders poorly. Look the attachments. Here's my .fonts.conf file: <?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd"> <fontconfig> <match target="font" > <edit mode="assign" name="hinting" > <bool>true</bool> </edit> </match> <match target="font" > <edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle" > <const>hintfull</const> </edit> </match> <match target="font" > <edit mode="assign" name="rgba" > <const>rgb</const> </edit> </match> </fontconfig>
Created attachment 4355 [details] The first example "e", "w" letters looks extremly weird
Created attachment 4356 [details] The second example Note "D" and "w" letters
Created attachment 4357 [details] The third example All the text looks damn ugly (all hints in all applications look this way). Final note: I have freetype 2.1.10 installed with #define TT_CONFIG_OPTION_BYTECODE_INTERPRETER My libXft library is 2.1.8 (I have installed it manually), Xorg 6.8.2, I have the latest nvidia binary drivers with XRender acceleration turned on. I've tried nv and vesa drivers as well but fonts looks the same regardless of a chosen driver.
Created attachment 5142 [details] Firefox view source of this web page window In X.org 7.0 Release everything became much worse in certain cases.
