[Devel] MingLiU TT font renders badly without bytecode interpreter

[Jan Slupski]

Hello,

I have question about one specific TrueType font that renders badly 
without bytecode interpreter turned on.

This font, AFAIK, is distributed in standard windows installation
(on my computer I found it in: 
/mnt/winnt/winnt/ServicePackFiles/i386/lang/cht/mingliu.ttc).

And is completely unreadable when displayed with Freetype WITHOUT bytecode 
interpreter.

I guess you tell me that it is "broken" or bad designed font, but
is there anything that can be done to display it better?

I'm attaching a sample of random glyphs displayed with and w/o bytecode
interpreter. If there is anything I can do to assist debugging this case,
just let me know.

I've been testing it on FT 2.1.3 (and earlier)

Thanks very much
Jan


PS.
Don't be confused with anti-aliasing - it may be not perfect, because
I converted image to indexed mode (32 color) to keep it small.
