Bug ID: 1062903
Summary: cantarell hints very poorly with new freetype CFF
engine (i.e. regression)
Product: Fedora
Version: 20
Component: abattis-cantarell-fonts
Assignee: ccecchi(a)redhat.com
Reporter: pierre-bugzilla(a)ossman.eu
QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
CC: ccecchi(a)redhat.com, fonts-bugs(a)lists.fedoraproject.org
Bug 995643 was filed against freetype for hinting Cantarell very poorly. That
was closed as NOTABUG. But that doesn't change the fact that Cantarell is still
fuzzy, which is a major issue for a UI font. So let's try filing this bug the
other way around. :)
Playing around with ftview suggests that forced auto hinting gives back roughly
the same hinting as in Fedora 19. So could we have that as a fontconfig bandaid
until better hinting information is available in the font itself?
