#908 F18 Feature: Fontconfig Enable Autohinting - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/FontconfigEnableAutohinting
Closed None Opened 11 years ago by jreznik.

For the 2012-07-23 meeting (or a week later if there are already too many features for this meeting). Submitted before submission deadline.


Unlikely to be at the meeting, commenting here.

I guess I am in favor of this as a feature, but I would prefer to have some more opinions from the maintainers of the various desktops, as they are who are going to be affected by this the most. CC'ing them.

I'm a little surprised we aren't already using autohinting. I remember when Bitstream landed a few years back there was some bruhaha about how the font looked bad in other OSes even though looked fine in ours because it lacked hinting and the autohinter saved it for us.
