Letter Spacing for Fonts @ <10pt Too Tight #144

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Which program triggers the problem? Specify the filename if possible.
GDIPP 0.9.1

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Install 0.9.1
2.Open any window with fonts at 9pt or smaller
3.Letter spacing is significantly tighter than under 0.8.1

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Better spacing. 

I am assuming that this is the default behaviour of the updated Freetype 
version in 0.9.1, because re-installing 0.8.1 or 0.8.2 fixes the problem. I 
wonder if there is some chance of adding an option to increase spacing or 
alternatively reverting to the earlier Freetype version, or offering 0.9.1 with 
both the new and the old freetype as separate renderers.

What version of gdipp (including renderer)? On which operating system?
0.9.1, Freetype, Win7 x64
