Hi. There are patches for libXft and cairo, which seem to heavily improve truetype font rendering (at least on my LCD monitor), at http://turnerdavid.neuf.fr/freetype/patches/font-patches.html Is there any chance that they could be added to libXft and cairo ports (WITH_LCD_RENDERING_PATCH knob maybe)? I'm asking cause author of these patches is unsure about licensing (cleartype patents are mentioned). And also, recent libXft doesn't compile with cjk patch (WITH_CJK knob defined) on recent -CURRENT/amd64: cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/local/include/freetype2 -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -fno-strict-aliasing -O -g -pipe -MT xftfreetype.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/xftfreetype.Tpo -c xftfreetype.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/xftfreetype.o xftfreetype.c: In function `XftFontInfoFill': xftfreetype.c:526: error: `FC_EMBEDDED_BITMAP' undeclared (first use in this function) xftfreetype.c:526: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once xftfreetype.c:526: error: for each function it appears in.) xftfreetype.c:565: error: `FC_USE_GAMMA' undeclared (first use in this function) gmake[1]: *** [xftfreetype.lo] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/x11-fonts/libXft/work/libXft-2.1.7' gmake: *** [all] Error 2 *** Error code 2 Stop in /usr/ports/x11-fonts/libXft. --- Yuri
