Re: [ft-devel] Unix Font Performance/Rendering patches available

David,

thanks for sharing the patches.

I understand from the FIR code it can do horizontal or vertical FIR 
filtering, not both, is that correct?

For an application where I put text in an interlaced video, I used 
5-taps vertical FIR filtering very similar to this 5-tap FIR in order to 
reduce local flickering effects (especially with small font size), by 
distributing energy vertically.

For these kind of purposes (and yours :-) I would say it would be a nice 
addition to have this inside Freetype.

Regards,

Leon Woestenberg.
