I'm sure your inundated with these pitiful requests for help, but I figured I'd give it a shot. I looked through the entire archives for something that might help me out but no luck. I'm trying to render some simple monochrome characters to a single texture to use as the source for my interface character set. Take a look at the attached image to see what I'm shooting for. Everything is working great, except I just can't get the font quality up to par. I've tried just about every combination of load flags in FT_Set_Char_Size, but nothing seems to look good. Zoom in and notice the bulky W and the lopsided 8 for instance. Its 12 point Arial on Win2K. <<font_Arial_12.png>> I've attached a trimmed version of the relevant code I'm using as well. <<font_email.txt>> I'm guessing my problem has to do with the loading flags I'm using in FT_Set_Char_Size. Might it have something to do with Hinting being disabled? The only post in the message archives that seemed related to my problem was from address@hidden Tue Feb 13 11:07:57 2001. He mentioned something about fractional offsets and it destroying the hinting? Anyway, if you could take a brief look at things and maybe throw me some advice I'd greatly appreciate it.
