Re: Tutorials On Using Anti-Aliased Fonts With KDE
by Erik Hill on Thursday 15/Mar/2001, @22:26
I just wanted to say, that if you are running either on a laptop, or are using a _digital_ LCD screen, then you really should turn sub-pixel rendering on. Add this to your /etc/X11/Xresources (or wherever your dist put it, I'm using Mandrake 8.0beta) and add this somewhere:

Xft:rgba

Anyway, that's it. It makes as big a difference, I think, compared to regular anti-aliasing, as comparing no aa with normal aa.
