Hi!We have had experience a problem with font when using Athens to display text.��
Apparently, this is due to some recent version of Athens. We have to load the following packages to not experience the problem:Name: Athens-Core-MarcusDenker.34

Ancestors: Athens-Cairo-SebastianTleye.50This is a _major_ problem to us and apparently there is no simple solution. These kind of problem may force us to move to seek for an alternative to Athens.
there's some kind of caching interference either in cairo or between cairo and freetype,
when using identity transformation matrix and integral (integer) font sizes.
and there is a simple workaround:
��
canvas pathTransform restoreAfter: [
canvas pathTransform scaleBy: 1.00001.
canvas pathTransform scaleBy: 1.00001.
"draw text here"
]
��
this workaround was in font-rendering code, but then i removed it, because i thought problem was solved.
