@tim: tx, when zooming in i can see the difference

@hunghung: for the changes to /etc/environment to take effect you may have to logout/login, the easiest quick test is from the command line:

Code: Select all

FREETYPE_PROPERTIES=truetype:interpreter-version=35 java -jar Pixelitor-4.2.1.jar

This is the screenshot of Pixelitor on an old DragonFlyBSD box, not updated to latest openjdk build. I posted it here for you to know how good patched Java font smoothing could be.

I'm just a normal user. I wish I could point exactly where the patches were to stop this time consuming process of trial and error. If we could patch our own Java, there's no need to import an external implementation :happy:

The last version with proper font smoothing of both Zulu JDK and AdoptOpenJDK is build 222. We should just stick to this version while waiting for upstream to resolve this problem, as with build 232 font smoothing has been broken everywhere. Please consider adding them in addition to the MX's stock Java as my requestion here: viewtopic.php?f=55&t=53835
