Figure to illustrate the difference in linux native and wine programs fonts
MS truetype fonts are installed for OpenSUSE11, and the system is set according
to http://en.opensuse.org/Optimal_Use_of_Fonts_on_SuSE, so anti-aliasing is
disabled for font size under 13, the bytecode interpreter threshold is set to
18 points, hinting disabled.
The settings are working seamlessly for native Linux programs, the fonts are
sharp. However in windows applications (about 20 tested so far) the fonts are
rendered hinted/anti-aliased regardless of their size and type. Smaller fonts
are simply blurry, not even polished. This is the case with and without fonts
installed using winetricks.
See attached figure: On the left side there is a Krusader screenshot using
Tahoma 8px bold. On the right side the same with Total Commander under Wine
using the same Tahoma 8px bold fonts. The difference is clearly visible without
magnifying.
Expected behavior: the fonts should be sharp as the system wide font settings
define. Wine should simply follow system settings.
