From 11bbb49921f9a7e44415754d42a3383399a80c7e6189d823cdcd68e08cfe24b4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Petr Gajdos Date: Mon, 28 May 2012 11:11:25 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] - Liberation Sans: hintslight appears to be not sufficient for both BCI and autohint, because longest straight lines in some glyphs such as 'g', 'a', 'B', 'f', etc., are rendered too wide (similar to hintnone). On the contrary, using BCI with hintstyle=hintfull (likewise for hintstyle=hintmedium) causes some parts of glyphs fonts to be too thin (see 'R' for example). So, the best combination seems to be autohinter with hintstyle=hintfull.
