Found!!! Re: [Q[ Text Drawing in ART backend...

[NeXT]

I've found what part is responsible for problematic string drawing....
It's related with sbit font drawing in drawGlyphs:.... method. If 
sbit_use is
turned off, every font(yes, shape itself is worse than sbit_use 
case..) is
correctly drawn. Now, I'm trying to find way to work around this....
