I made the mistake of releasing an updated freetype package with BCI enabled and it caused terrible fonts for those people that do not have properly hinted TTF fonts (those are actually rare, except for a few fairly recent Microsoft fonts). If you enable BCI you're disabling anti-aliasing for the fonts that don't come with proper hinting. And that's the problem. If there was a way to have anti-aliasing for fonts that lack proper hinting and still have BCI for the others, we would have the best of both worlds. In the meantime I have replace the freetype package by one with BCI back disabled. -- dag wieers, dag at wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [all I want is a warm bed and a kind word and unlimited power]
