It's give equaly good anti-aliasing at equivalent speed.

Yeah, it's a nice little library that includes not just the text support, but also standard vector primitives as well.


But the advantage of D-Type is that is does outlines (with
variable width). The disadvantage is that it's not free and
not open.

        And you can't get source, and you can't relicense it.


* Any comments, experience using D-Type

        It's got a REALLY FUNKY API, but a little C++ fixes that up quickly ;).
