Sun 09 Aug 2020 08:20:00 AM UTC, comment #1:  This is quite important. No Microsoft standard TrueType renderer will anti-alias a font that specifies bilevel rendering, and no Microsoft ClearType renderer will do vertical anti-aliasing on a font that specifies no anti-aliasing vertically. I see many cringe renders from applications using FreeType incorrectly. And v38 should be permanently disabled until the subpixel renderer with no vertical anti-aliasing is finished.	- <_194785>
Wed 08 Oct 2014 06:50:52 AM UTC, original submission:   This has been requested on the list a few times, and it should actually be the default for native hinting of TrueType fonts.	Werner LEMBERG <wl>
