A freetype font mystery | |

Hi List, I've been moving from a rather old version of X on a thin client device we sell to something more up to date. Having moved my dev system to an Xorg pulled from the git repository, I'm seeing some odd features in the font rendering and I was hoping someone could suggest what is up. Here is an example image of a program showing the problem: http://wmltd.co.uk/images/font_problem_new_xorg.png I've marked with red dots all the locations where the glyphs are mis-rendered. It looks like gtk+ is making too little room for the glyphs. How does gtk+ know how big the font is? I've tested this with gtk+-2.4.4 (the old version we used) and gtk +-2.8.13 and gtk+-2.12.10 (which is the one shown in the image). In each case, fontconfig was pulled from the xorg git repo and freetype was version 2.3.7. Can anyone suggest where I should chase this problem? I'm at a loss on my own. very best regards, Seb James Appendix: Output of fc-list on the system: LucidaBright:style=Italic Utopia:style=Bold Italic Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:style=Bold LucidaTypewriter:style=Sans Bold Bitstream Vera Sans:style=Oblique Times:style=Bold Italic Utopia:style=Bold Bitstream Vera Sans:style=Roman Charter:style=Bold Italic Courier:style=Regular Charter:style=Bold Helvetica:style=Oblique LucidaBright:style=Regular Terminal:style=Bold Fixed:style=SemiCondensed Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:style=Oblique Times:style=Bold Charter:style=Italic Courier:style=Oblique Times:style=Italic Lucida:style=Sans Bold Bitstream Vera Sans:style=Bold LucidaTypewriter:style=Sans New Century Schoolbook:style=Bold Utopia:style=Italic Courier:style=Bold Oblique Lucida:style=Sans Italic Bitstream Vera Serif:style=Roman Lucida:style=Sans Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:style=Bold Oblique Bitstream Vera Sans:style=Bold Oblique Helvetica:style=Bold Times:style=Regular New Century Schoolbook:style=Bold Italic Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:style=Roman Lucida:style=Sans Bold Italic Helvetica:style=Regular cursor.pcf:style=Regular Charter:style=Regular Terminal:style=Regular Helvetica:style=Bold Oblique New Century Schoolbook:style=Italic Bitstream Vera Serif:style=Bold Courier:style=Bold Utopia:style=Regular New Century Schoolbook:style=Regular _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list xorg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
