No idea, but it would be great to improve the situation with the Cairo integration. Cheers, Alexandre -- _,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;: Alexandre Bergel http://www.bergel.eu ^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;.

Anyone knows, why the text rendering with athens (cairo) looks slightly different than the freetypeplugin one?
attached is a screenshot, left side athen right side (morphic) freetypeplugin.
It "looks" like the cairo freetype fontrendering uses CAIRO_ANTIALIAS_GRAY, no colored subpixel antialiasing. But the font options do define antialiase subpixel and a subpixel ordering RGB.
This is on windows 7 with the latest vm, does it look different on other Systems?
