No idea, but it would be great to improve the situation with the Cairo integration.

Cheers,

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?
