Would be nice to expose the technique used in FreeType for underline/strikeout... even if only stub where rendered by a StrikeFont. Would help a lot for other canvas types (PDF, PostScript etc.)... For instance, a P{DF canvas would draw the underline using graphics primitives...

It uses pre-rendered sub-pixel fonts instead of rendering the fonts via FreeType. (Much faster, not quite as nice in details). Freetype fonts are available if needed, though. The pre-rendered fonts just replace the 80ties=looking Squeak fonts and provide a good enough selection for a development image.

Hi, I had the same issue with exupery vm. Works with VM Squeak-3.11.3.2135. See: http://n2.nabble.com/New-pharo-images-td4125021.html#a4125467 Laurent

Hi, the last version's fonts look really bad. See attached files I have Ubuntu 9.10, 64 bits. Dev09.11.4 looks fine Maybe is a preference setting? Hernan
